Pyriform implants *

One type of nasal implant that has come into increasing demand is the pyriform or paranasal implant.

Often performed as a adjunct to rhinoplasty, paranasal augmentation with custom-made silicone implants is a simple, safe, and inexpensive method that can readily improve a patient’s profile.

Clinical experience demonstrates that patients with midface concavity can have their aesthetic desires satisfied with pyriform implants. Here’s how:

  • Pyriform implants increase the convexity of the lower face.
  • Increasing the convexity of the midface makes the nose seem less prominent.
  • Pyriform implants increase the projection of the nasal base.
  • Pyriform implants increase the projection of the tip of the nose.
  • Pyriform aperture augmentation opens the nasolabial angle.
  • Pyriform (paranasal) implants alter the vertical plane of the lip.

When combined with other aesthetic procedures, such as rhinoplasty or cheek augmentation, pyriform (paranasal) augmentation can improve the overall outcome and lead to greater patient satisfaction.
