Rib cartilage augmentation rhinoplasty is usually taken from a short section above our own sixth or seventh rib, cut near the seventh rib in the chest and remove the cartilage.
After the removal of costal cartilage, the vacant part of costal cartilage will soon be replaced by fibrous connective tissue.
Fibrous connective tissue has a certain hardness, so it will not affect human function and contour stability. After full recovery, human function will not be limited.
Therefore, there is no need to worry that the removal of costal cartilage will have a serious impact on the body, but it will leave a small scar on the ribs. If you insist on applying scar-removing drugs, it will gradually fade away and will not be greatly affected.
However, a little advice, for friends who have a rhinoplasty for the first time, it is not recommended to use costal cartilage at the beginning, which is a bit expensive and the operation price is not cheap.
In fact, costal cartilage rhinoplasty is often used with friends who repair their noses or reject their prostheses, so they should choose reasonably according to their personal situation and don't blindly follow the crowd!
