Rhinoplasty can be divided into closed surgery and open surgery. In traditional open surgery, an L-shaped silicone prosthesis is placed in the bridge of the nose and nose. However, due to the limited size, it can not completely fit the nose shape, or because of the long-term friction between the implant and the nose, the tip of the nose in contact with the implant becomes thinner or even perforated.
At the beginning of rhinoplasty, the patient is first given general anesthesia or local anesthesia. Generally speaking, Dr. Liu Yanjun first separates the skin of the nose from the subcutaneous soft tissue, puts it into a frame for' remodeling', sews up the incision, and fixes the nose after the operation 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 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.
