The shortcomings of ribs as noses.

The late deformation rate of costal cartilage in Chinese women is about 10%, which is higher in men. Once deformed, it must be corrected by secondary surgery, and it tends to be stable in about one and a half years. It will be much better to take it out after deformation, but it will not be deformed after that. The costal cartilage itself is curved, even though it was artificially corrected at that time, because the cartilage itself has memory, and then it returned to its original appearance. Therefore, costal cartilage will be deformed, and even after 50 years, technology can't completely solve this problem. In addition to deformation, trauma is also a reason to prevent people from loving it. Even if the later recovery is excellent, the scar on the ribs can't be completely invisible.

The difference between auricular cartilage and costal cartilage

1, ear cartilage is soft and easy to absorb, and can be used to pad the tip of the nose;

2. The costal cartilage is hard enough to support the columella.

What are the factors that affect the effect of rhinoplasty?

1. If a small clinic without business qualification is randomly selected for prosthetic rhinoplasty, the effect of rhinoplasty may not be as good as that of a professional plastic surgery hospital. ?

2. Daily nursing also has a great influence on the effect of prosthetic rhinoplasty. Improper postoperative care may delay the recovery of surgical wounds and even cause inflammation and swelling of the nose, which will affect the effect of rhinoplasty.
