Partial-thickness shave excision has been used for the treatment of rhinophyma, but the mid- and long-term efficacy of the treatment is unknown. &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Objectives:&lt;\/i&gt;&lt;\/b&gt; We analysed the clinical outcomes of shave excision in patients with rhinophyma in our centre between 2005 and 2009. &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Methods:&lt;\/i&gt;&lt;\/b&gt; The entire nose was shaved using a scalpel while under tumescent anaesthesia. The clinical assessment was scored using a novel Rhinophyma Severity Index. &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Results:&lt;\/i&gt;&lt;\/b&gt; Thirty-three patients with rhinophyma and shave excision were recruited for the study. A mid-term follow-up examination was possible in 23\/33 (69.7%) patients. After a mean follow-up of 37.4 \u00b1 13.2 months, 21 (91.3%) patients showed an improved Rhinophyma Severity Index (3.3 \u00b1 1.1 to 1.7 \u00b1 0.9, p &lt; 0.0001). All patients reported a high level of satisfaction after surgery (excellent or good result). Eleven (47.8%) patients developed rhinophyma recurrence. &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Conclusion:&lt;\/i&gt;&lt;\/b&gt; Shave excision under tumescent anaesthesia is an effective treatment for rhinophyma. The treatment is associated with high patient satisfaction and minimal side effects. A possible recurrence of rhinophyma must be addressed, however, while obtaining informed consent.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1159\/000351556","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2013,8,30]],"date-time":"2013-08-30T07:25:27Z","timestamp":1377847527000},"page":"31-36","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":30,"title":["New Rhinophyma Severity Index and Mid-Term Results following Shave Excision of Rhinophyma"],"prefix":"10.1159","volume":"227","author":[{"given":"T.","family":"Wetzig","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"M.","family":"Averbeck","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"J.C.","family":"Simon","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"M.","family":"Kendler","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"127","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2013,8,30]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1055\/s-2008-1064456"},{"key":"ref2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/SAP.0b013e31815f12d2"},{"key":"ref3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/01.PRS.0000131875.67987.69"},{"key":"ref4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00006534-197009000-00010"},{"key":"ref5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1365-2133.2009.09317.x"},{"key":"ref6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1524-4725.2011.01965.x"},{"key":"ref7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00000637-200208000-00017"},{"key":"ref8","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1046\/j.1524-4725.2002.01209.x"},{"key":"ref9","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001\/archotol.1993.01880180042007"},{"key":"ref10","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1055\/s-0032-1309304"}],"container-title":["Dermatology"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/www.karger.com\/Article\/Pdf\/351556","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/www.karger.com\/Article\/Pdf\/351556","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2025,4,23]],"date-time":"2025-04-23T18:28:01Z","timestamp":1745432881000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/karger.com\/article\/doi\/10.1159\/000351556"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2013]]},"references-count":10,"journal-issue":{"issue":"1","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2013,10,1]]},"published-print":{"date-parts":[[2013,10,3]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1159\/000351556","archive":["Portico"],"relation":{},"ISSN":["1018-8665","1421-9832"],"issn-type":[{"value":"1018-8665","type":"print"},{"value":"1421-9832","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2013]]}}}
