Multiple patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) are available to assess patient satisfaction after rhinoplasty.

These self-assessment measures can be divided into 3 categories: measures for functional outcomes, aesthetic outcomes, and both.

Although Barone et al have discussed this classification, a recently developed scale was not featured.

We performed a PubMed search for publications in English that described patient satisfaction post-rhinoplasty, utilizing PROMs that facilitate both functional and aesthetic self-assessment. PROMs, including the Rhinoplasty Outcomes Evaluation, the Functional Rhinoplasty Outcome Inventory 17, the Rhinoplasty Health Inventory and Nasal Outcomes scale, the FACE-Q Rhinoplasty module, and the Standardized Cosmesis and Health Nasal Outcomes Survey, were reviewed and critically appraised in terms of their content, ease of use, and analysis parameters.

This review highlights the benefit of using multi-functional PROMs after rhinoplasty instead of single-purpose PROMs and enables surgeons and researchers to choose the most appropriate measure for their purpose.
