Can the bridge of the nose also use autologous cartilage?
In the face of people with a low nose bridge who want to become a high nose bridge, it is more popular to pad the nose bridge with autologous cartilage. Autologous cartilage pad has the advantages of good stability, good compatibility with nasal tissue, simple rhinoplasty operation and easy disassembly. But it also has some disadvantages, such as poor enhancement effect and easy deformation. Here is a detailed introduction to the bridge of the nose with autogenous cartilage pad.

The advantages of autologous cartilage rhinoplasty are 1, good histocompatibility and stability. Healing with the local tissue of the nose, easy to fix, and autologous cartilage rhinoplasty will not shift; 2. Autologous rhinoplasty will not cause rejection; 3, less absorption, low absorption rate of autologous rhinoplasty, and no blood supply to survive; 4. Autologous rhinoplasty is simple and easy to obtain. Autologous rhinoplasty can generally be taken from ear cartilage, nasal septum cartilage and costal cartilage; 5. The model is easy to carve and trim, and the autogenous rhinoplasty material is an ideal rhinoplasty material. The usual nasal prosthesis material (silicone rubber prosthesis) is fixed in shape (L-shaped), which can not make a beautiful nasal tip, but the ear cartilage can be used to shape the nasal tip. Autologous rhinoplasty eliminates nasal deformation and perforation; 6, the touch is real, you don't have to worry about normal contact with the nose after autologous rhinoplasty, you can push the nose and feel soft and realistic. Autologous rhinoplasty can be done by cartilage in human body. For different people, car plastic surgeons will choose according to your specific situation.

Disadvantages of autogenous cartilage rhinoplasty: 1. If the autologous rhinoplasty material is taken from costal cartilage, there will be scars on the chest with slight trauma, and some costal cartilage will be easily bent and deformed after transplantation. 2. Autologous cartilage rhinoplasty is made of auricular cartilage, which is only used to raise the tip of the nose and is not suitable for nasal columella. Due to the bending of cartilage in the concha cavity, the columella will bend after operation. There will be some absorption, and the absorption rate varies from person to person, generally below 15%;

3. If the nasal septal cartilage is used as the material for augmentation rhinoplasty, it can only be used for cosmetic surgery of the tip of nose and columella, and it will be partially absorbed. The absorption rate varies from person to person and is generally below 15%.
