What is Polygon Rhinoplasty?

Polygon rhinoplasty is the performance of rhinoplasty surgery with drawing knowledge. Polygon is the general name of shapes with more than one side. Such as triangle, rectangle, trapezoid, pentagon.

Why Do We Analyze with Cubic Forms?

When you draw organic objects with cubic forms and then soften the edges, the picture emerges. Nasal cartilages are more angular structures and the nasal skin softens the edges of the cartilages. The nasal skin acts like a painter softening cubic forms. When a painter who knows the anatomy of the nose draws the nose with cubic forms, he actually draws the cartilage anatomy. Thus, it is possible to draw the cartilage anatomy of a flawless nose without aesthetics in 4-5 minutes. One of the secrets of closed technique rhinoplasty is to be able to read the surface of the nose.

What are Çakır Polygons Used For?

Since Çakır polygons are revealed by examining beautiful and breathing noses, the results obtained with this system are natural. It allows the surgeon to see the pattern mass, which reveals the relationship of the cartilages to each other during the surgery. It is almost impossible for deformities such as a pin nose to occur. Cubic forms will serve as a template for a surgeon performing rhinoplasty while shaping the cartilages. It will make it easier to see not only the shape of the cartilages, but also the sections formed by the relationship of the cartilage and the skin of the nose.

Can Everyone See Polygons?

Those who have received pattern training already see them. However, I can make you see them too. In organic models, the surface anatomy is very detailed and complex. When the light source is fixed, you start to see cubic forms when you move around the object and record the reflected light and shadows in your brain. You see more details by changing the location of the light source and moving around it. Stand in front of a friend whose nose you really like, squint your eyes, try to see the lights shining on the nose, determine the shape of the light, notice how the light travels, thickens and thins, move your head slightly and watch the lights change. Create triangles and quadrilaterals from the shapes drawn by the light and now… you have started to see polygons.
