In the case of unsatisfactory surgical results, it is recommended to wait at least half a year after surgery before considering repair. The effect of an operation, we think it takes at least six months for all tissues to return to normal completely. Premature repair will more or less interfere with the effect of reoperation due to the influence of damaged tissue, and will also affect the surgeon's comprehensive judgment on the operation. The plan of the repair operation depends on the operation process of your first treatment, and whether the details such as ear cartilage and nasal septum cartilage are applied. It's best to provide the photos before and after the operation, the records of surgical treatment, the places you are dissatisfied with, and the results you expect to achieve to the doctor who will do the prosthetic surgery for you, which will be of great help. As for whether you must use ribs, it depends on your last operation. If the cartilage of nasal septum has been broken, the basic condition of nose is low, the skin is thin and elastic, and the desired effect is outstanding, then artificial bone or rib can be considered.
