What are the sequelae of prosthetic rhinoplasty?
Rhinoplasty can improve some defects of the nose, make the nose more firm and stylish, and coordinate well with other organs. At present, rhinoplasty with prosthesis is generally used, but some sequelae may occur after operation because of the implantation of some prosthesis and obvious wound. Sequela of prosthesis is common and easy to be found, which leads to thinning of nasal skin and obvious scar.

Silicone prosthesis is easy to be seen when it is irradiated by strong light on the side, and the prosthesis will cause skin thinning or even ulceration to form scars; The disadvantage of swelling is that if it is infected or needs to be removed, it will damage some surrounding soft tissues. But generally speaking, these two kinds of prostheses are relatively safe artificial materials used in rhinoplasty at present.

Silicone prosthesis was widely used in previous years. They are generally considered to be relatively safe, harmless and compatible with human tissues. However, they are hard and prone to skew, and the chances of silicone allergy are very, very small. Expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) is a kind of prosthesis which is highly respected in recent years, and it has a special microporous structure.

Going to a regular plastic surgery institution and doing a good job of postoperative care can reduce the occurrence of sequelae to a certain extent. Be sure to follow the doctor's advice after the operation, don't eat spicy food, avoid touching your nose, and don't violently strike.
