Is it better to make the nose into ribs or ear cartilage? Nowadays, many people are not very satisfied with their five senses, so they will choose plastic surgery. Some people have a flat nose, so apart from beauty, everyone will choose nasal plastic surgery to improve the aesthetics of the nose. So is it better to make the nose into ribs or ear cartilage?

Is it better to be a nasal bone or an ear cartilage? 1 It is better to make alar ribs and auricular cartilage. Rib and auricle cartilage are composed of their own cartilage tissue, and there is generally no rejection reaction after filling, and the effect is natural after recovery.

If you are not satisfied with your nose shape, you can usually improve it by augmentation rhinoplasty with costal cartilage or augmentation rhinoplasty with auricular cartilage. The specific choice needs to be decided according to your actual situation.

First, the principle of rib nose:

The principle of costal cartilage augmentation rhinoplasty is to remove excess cartilage in the body. Rib cartilage rhinoplasty is done by taking cartilage out of one's own body, which has good compatibility and will not cause rejection. It can be filled into the nose to shape the nose and make it more beautiful. After costal cartilage augmentation rhinoplasty, it is forbidden to eat raw onion and ginger, which will affect wound healing.

Second, the principle of making auricular cartilage nose:

The principle of autologous auricular cartilage augmentation rhinoplasty is to take a part of auricular cartilage from one's own ear, then modify it, and then implant it at the tip of our nose to achieve the effect of rhinoplasty. Autologous auricular cartilage is the best material for augmentation mammoplasty of nasal tip, with natural effect and no rejection.

Third, matters needing attention after rhinoplasty:

1, keep the rhinoplasty site clean and dry, and don't touch the surgical site at will.

2, in strict accordance with the requirements of the doctor, actively do a good job of nursing, regular disinfection of surgical sites.

3, to closely observe the recovery of the surgical site, if there are any adverse reactions, should be sent to the hospital in time.

To sum up, it is better to make nasal bone and ear cartilage. Rib and auricle cartilage are composed of their own cartilage tissue, and there is generally no rejection reaction after filling, and the effect is more natural after recovery.

Is the nose good for ribs or ear cartilage? Rib cartilage rhinoplasty is more suitable for patients who need to lengthen their noses and need more tissues than auricular cartilage rhinoplasty. The difference between auricular cartilage and costal cartilage is that the strength and tissue of costal cartilage are large, and the total costal augmentation rhinoplasty can be 5-7 cm and the semi-costal augmentation can be 3 cm.

Therefore, the nose wing is too upturned and the nose wing is too short, so the nose wing needs to be extended. It is more suitable to use costal cartilage augmentation rhinoplasty as nasal septum extension transplantation or tripod support. Moreover, the nasal root and nasal dorsum are very low, and patients who have undergone full costal or granular chondroid transplantation are also suitable for costal cartilage transplantation because the strength and quantity of auricular cartilage are not enough.

If the patient wants the nose to become smaller and taller, a prosthesis is placed, and it is not necessary to lengthen the nose. At this time, it is better to use ear cartilage for rhinoplasty. Because the ear cartilage is easy to obtain, that is, the ear cartilage is taken through the opening behind the ear, the postoperative pain is light, the shape of the auricle is not affected, the scar is hidden, the surgical trauma is small, the operation is simple, general anesthesia is not needed, and the recovery is fast.

To sum up, if you want to lengthen your nose or use a lot of tissue, it is suitable for costal cartilage rhinoplasty. If the amount of cartilage needed is small, it is more appropriate to use ear cartilage for rhinoplasty without lengthening the nose and only increasing it.

Is nasal costal cartilage better or auricular cartilage better?

Costal cartilage and auricular cartilage are both part of their own constitution, which can play a very good role in improving and will not be rejected. Moreover, both auricular cartilage and costal cartilage can achieve good nasal shaping effect, but the specific use is different, as follows:

Ear cartilage: it is more suitable for shaping the shape of nose. If you are doing plastic surgery on the tip of the nose or alar, it is more appropriate to use ear cartilage, because the hardness of ear cartilage is more appropriate, and it is not easy to penetrate human skin, which has less impact on the body.

Costal cartilage: It can create the shape of the whole costal nose and nose. If nasal synthesis is done at the bridge of the nose, costal cartilage is better and the effect is more natural.

In short, you should choose according to the requirements of your nose type. If the nose shape is relatively good, ear cartilage can be selected to cooperate with prosthesis for rhinoplasty to achieve better shape adjustment.

If the requirements for the nose are relatively high, you can choose full rib or half rib to improve it. These two methods have their own advantages and disadvantages. Specifically, we should communicate with the doctor during the face-to-face consultation and give a specific plan.

Is nose good for ribs or good for ear cartilage? What is the difference between auricular cartilage and costal cartilage for rhinoplasty? Which is better?

The nose foundation is poor, and the ear cartilage should be carefully selected. The reason is very simple, the effect is not good and it is easy to collapse. As a rhinoplasty doctor, judging from the clients I met in clinic, most people are not suitable for using auricular cartilage as nose. Ear cartilage is often made into a scaffold by doctors and used on the tip of the nose to raise and modify the tip of the nose.

Due to the curvature of the ear cartilage itself, the tip of the nose looks more natural after implantation. The newly taken auricular cartilage is not desirable, and it is suitable for people with good nasal foundation and a little lack of nasal tip height. A small amount of auricular cartilage can achieve good results. Nursing after rhinoplasty is very important. I summarized some precautions and nursing points for everyone.

1. Early postoperative local cold compress can reduce postoperative swelling. Starting from the fifth day after operation, local hot compress should be done to promote recovery;

2. The prosthesis is not wrapped by fibrous membrane within one week after operation, and it is in an unstable stage. Be extra careful not to touch, squeeze or bump this part;

3. Pay attention to protect the operating area after rhinoplasty, don't shake your nose with your hands, and don't collide with the operating area;

4. Do not eat spicy food after operation, and do not drink or smoke for one week;

5. Take the essence of postoperative restorative nutrition research, antibiotics and other related drugs on time according to the doctor's advice every day;

6. Don't touch water before removing stitches in the surgical incision area. You can apply some erythromycin ointment with sterile cotton swabs.

7. Visit the stitches on time. It is suggested to communicate with doctors more during the recovery process, and consult doctors for targeted treatment in time if there are postoperative problems.

Cases of auricular cartilage rhinoplasty

Preoperative diagnosis: the nose bridge was low and flat, the nose was exposed seriously and the alar edge retreated before operation. The surgical appeal is that the tip of the nose is elongated and the nose is not exposed. Naturally, it is not exaggerated. Ear cartilage is sufficient, so ear cartilage is used.

Surgical plan: Breast augmentation implantation+auricular cartilage pad as the internal support of the nasal tip, lengthening the length and height of the nasal tip, shaping the nasal tip lobules, and fine-tuning the nasal shape and internal support. The overall surgical effect is not bad. However, if the foundation is poor and the ear cartilage is forcibly used as the supporting structure, the nose column is elongated and the nose shape is stiff, and it may be ok immediately after surgery.

However, due to the soft texture of ear cartilage, limited supporting force and unstable internal support, it is easy to collapse nose in the later stage. Just like building a house, the nose pad is equivalent to the foundation. If Gai Lou didn't lay a good foundation at the beginning, the probability of collapse will increase in the future. For people with poor nasal foundation, it is best to use stronger costal cartilage as support.
