Introduction A thin skin or scarred soft tissue envelope poses a challenge, particularly in the context of secondary septorhinoplasty (SRP). It can lead to unpredictable scarring, shrinkage and discoloration of the skin. Apart from careful preparation of the soft tissue mantle, there is no gold standard to minimize the above risks. The aim of this study was to create a thin "separation layer" between the nasal bridge and the skin by autologous fat transfer with the addition of platelet rich fibrin (PRF) in order to conceal small irregularities, improve the quality of the skin soft tissue mantle and optimize the mobility of the skin.
