Prosthetic rhinoplasty or autogenous cartilage rhinoplasty, which is better?
Hello, during the operation, two kinds of materials are common rhinoplasty methods at present, each with its own advantages and disadvantages. How to choose depends on your own situation.

The surface of the prosthesis material is smooth and easy to implant and take out, and the nose bridge can be well shaped from the shape of the prosthesis. Similarly, it also has disadvantages, that is, the position of prosthesis is very important during surgical filling, and the rejection rate after operation is high. Once infection occurs, the prosthesis needs to be removed as soon as possible.

There are three kinds of autogenous cartilage: auricular cartilage, nasal septum cartilage and costal cartilage. Compared with prosthesis, autologous cartilage has less postoperative rejection, and there are two surgical methods: full rib and half rib.

The whole rib and nose are made of autologous cartilage. Half rib, nose bridge is made of silica gel, nose is made of ear cartilage or nasal septum cartilage.

However, autogenous cartilage also has shortcomings, and it may be deformed and absorbed after operation.

The materials are all safe. If you want to make the operation more secure and have a good postoperative effect, then I suggest you make more efforts in choosing hospitals and doctors. After all, professional doctors can improve the success rate of surgery.

I hope my advice will help you with plastic surgery, and I wish everything all the best ~
