Rhinoplasty is one of the most frequent aesthetic surgeries; the procedure can be challenging for inexperienced surgeons, and positive outcomes depend on good communication with the patient, proper planning, and precise execution. Three-dimensional (3D) technology has emerged to address these issues, but specific software for 3D planning tends to be expensive.
This study presents a simple, low-cost method for 3D simulation to plan rhinoplasty.
This preliminary report describes 3D rhinoplasty planning in a series of 3 cases employing free software and an add-on especially developed for rhinoplasty (Blender and RhinOnBlender, respectively). The photogrammetry protocol, which can be performed easily with a smartphone, is described in detail along with all the steps in 3D planning.
The software and add-on automated the process, making the tool environment accessible to surgeons who are not familiar with graphic design software. The surgeries were uneventful in all cases, and the patients were satisfied with the outcomes.
3D graphic technology has provided significant advances in health research, improvement, and teaching for surgeons and communication between surgeons and patients. Free open-source software and add-ons are excellent options that offer proven utility, affordability, and ease of utilization to healthcare providers.
隆鼻术是最常见的美容手术之一；对于经验不足的外科医生来说，该手术具有挑战性，而良好的医患沟通、恰当的规划和精准的执行是获得良好效果的关键。三维（3D）技术的出现解决了这些问题，但 3D 规划专用软件往往价格昂贵。
本研究提出了一种简单、低成本的 3D 模拟方法，用于规划隆鼻术。
本初步报告描述了采用免费软件（Blender）和专为隆鼻设计的插件（RhinOnBlender）对 3 例患者进行 3D 隆鼻规划的方法。详细描述了使用智能手机即可轻松完成的摄影测量协议以及 3D 规划的所有步骤。
该软件和插件实现了流程自动化，使得不熟悉图形设计软件的外科医生也能轻松上手。所有手术均顺利完成，患者对结果满意。
3D 图形技术为外科医生的健康研究、改进和教学以及外科医生与患者之间的沟通提供了重要的进展。免费开源软件和插件是极好的选择，它们为医疗保健提供者提供了经过验证的实用性、可负担性和易用性。
