The nasal tip procedure is the most sophisticated aspect of a rhinoplasty, particularly in certain known problem types of nasal tips. A new approach, using Supramid tip implants, is introduced. Precise guidelines for the preoperative planning and operative techniques are developed, and the so-called pocket, experience, positioning, shape and size, and incision (PEPSI) rule is outlined. A comparative discussion of the advantages and disadvantages of the Supramid implant vs cartilage grafts and/or repositioning of alar cartilages is presented. The Supramid implant was used in the tip area for nasal tip alteration in a total of 98 cases. Patients were monitored for a period of six months to four years. The results were satisfactory.
鼻尖手术是鼻整形术中最复杂的方面，尤其是在某些已知的鼻尖问题类型中。本文介绍了一种使用Supramid鼻尖植入物的新方法。制定了术前规划和手术技术的精确指南，并概述了所谓的口袋、经验、定位、形状和大小以及切口（PEPSI）规则。对Supramid植入物与软骨移植和/或鼻翼软骨重新定位的优缺点进行了比较讨论。Supramid植入物共用于98例鼻尖区域的鼻尖矫正。对患者进行了为期六个月至四年的监测。结果令人满意。
