In summary, autogenous tissue remains the authors' preferred method of augmenting the nasal dorsum. Some authors have tried Supramid mesh, which tends to resorb. Mersilene seems to resist resorption and has been used with notable success. Silicone has had variable success but, because of bad publicity and the possibility of autoimmune disease, has fallen out of favor. Medpore never enjoyed widespread use over the dorsum of the nose, because of its rigidity. Gore-Tex seems to be gaining in popularity; animal studies have demonstrated its biocompatibility to be superior to that of other implants. Although the data remain preliminary at this point, they are as good as for any other implant material.
