  • (1888PressRelease) September 01, 2025 - Dr. Srinjoy Saha, plastic and reconstructive surgeon at Apollo Gleneagles Hospitals, today announced the launch of a minimally invasive rhinoplasty technique that uses biodegradable implants to support the nose during healing and then dissolve safely over time.

    The method-referred to in practice as BioScaffold Rhinoplasty-is designed to address common patient concerns with traditional nose surgery, including prolonged swelling, bruising, and the long-term risks of permanent implants. By employing dissolvable polylactic and polyglycolic acid scaffolds and smaller, tissue-sparing incisions, the technique provides temporary structural support while the patient’s own tissue heals.

    “The goal is stable shape, better airflow, and results that look natural on the face,” said Dr. Saha. “Biodegradable support lets us assist healing when it matters most and then step out of the way once the nose is structurally sound.”

    The key points of this technique include:
    Minimally invasive approach: Smaller incisions and less tissue disruption compared with conventional methods.
    Temporary, dissolvable support: Biodegradable implants act as scaffolding during the 3–6 month healing window, then resorb.
    Patient-centred outcomes: Technique is aimed at natural facial balance and functional improvement in breathing, with the potential for shorter downtime than traditional rhinoplasty.

    The novel nose surgery technique is available for rhinoplasty patients with both cosmetic and functional problems. They include candidates seeking dorsal hump reduction, tip refinement, or correction of airflow problems. Suitability depends on individual anatomy and goals. Cases requiring major structural rebuilding may still benefit from traditional approaches.

    “Not every nose needs the same operation,” Dr. Saha added. “This option expands what we can offer patients who want subtle, durable changes and a quicker return to normal routines.”

    Availability: Interested patients can avail BioScaffold Rhinoplasty at Dr Srinjoy Saha's plastic surgery clinic in Apollo Gleneagles Hospitals, Kolkata. Patients can schedule an evaluation to determine candidacy and discuss expected recovery based on their case.
