Rhinoplasty is an act of adjusting or reconstructing the appearance of the nose. The main appeal is to make the nose more beautiful. It is often used to solve the unsightly appearance of the nose caused by some accidents or congenital defects.

Rhinoplasty refers to the operation of cushioning the external nose by filling the nose with autologous, foreign tissue or tissue substitutes, thus improving the appearance of the nose. There are two kinds of rhinoplasty incisions: columella incision and intranasal incision, among which the intranasal incision is widely used because the incision is hidden and there is no trace on the outside.

Surgical rhinoplasty

At the beginning of rhinoplasty, the patient is first given general anesthesia or local anesthesia. Generally speaking, the plastic surgeon first separates the nasal skin from the subcutaneous soft tissue, puts it into the frame for' remodeling' action, sews up the incision, and fixes the nose just after surgery with adhesive tape to promote healing. According to the needs of different patients, autologous cartilage transplantation or general fillers are sometimes used to strengthen or change the nasal contour. Autograft tissue is usually taken from nasal septum, but it can also be taken from costal cartilage or auricular cartilage if it is not enough.

Non-surgical rhinoplasty

Non-surgical rhinoplasty is to inject fillers, such as collagen, hyaluronic acid and microcrystalline porcelain, to change and shape. Fill the flat part of the nose with fillers to create a sharp or smooth appearance. The whole process will not change the size of the nose, but it can still be used to correct some birth defects.

Early attempts to use fillers are mostly toxic substances, such as paraffin and silicon. After 2000, doctors such as Dr. Alexander Rifkin and Dr. Andrew Thun Le Ying successfully developed a benign technology by using modern fillers.

What are the methods of rhinoplasty?

injection rhinoplasty

At present, the most commonly used materials for injection rhinoplasty are Aibeifu, hyaluronic acid, autologous collagen and autologous fat. Rapid and minimally invasive injection rhinoplasty.

Rhinoplasty

In recent years, rhinoplasty has been widely used. From the medical point of view, reinforcement material is the most ideal substitute for biological tissue at present, which is mainly used for vascular reconstruction in human organ transplantation. Expansive materials have the best compatibility with human body, and are non-toxic, non-carcinogenic and non-allergic, and do not need to be replaced for life.

Silicone prosthesis rhinoplasty

Silicone prosthesis rhinoplasty was the most commonly used in previous years. Silicone rubber is a safe and effective implant material. Laboratory and clinical experiments show that it is compatible with human tissues, non-toxic, harmless, plastic and non-carcinogenic. If you encounter problems, you can take them out for rest and replacement. Even if it is not used, it can restore the nose shape without causing the skin on the back of the nose to relax. But only experienced doctors can avoid many complications caused by repeated operations.
