Is costal cartilage rhinoplasty harmful to the body?
Rhinoplasty with costal cartilage has no effect on the rib itself, except that the incision of costal cartilage will leave a small and light scar. Due to the repair and supplement of scar after costal cartilage resection, the function of costal cartilage donor site is almost unaffected, and only a slight external skin scar hinders aesthetics. For people who are close to skin color after scar healing, scars are almost invisible and have little effect on appearance. For female patients, it is also possible to hide scars as much as possible by using methods such as sub-breast incision.
