1. Silicone rhinoplasty
Silicone is the most widely used prosthetic material in rhinoplasty. After silica gel is implanted into human body, even after a long time, it will not change in height and shape.
Advantages: less surgical trauma, low price and convenient removal.
Disadvantages: If the preoperative design is unreasonable, there may be problems such as prosthesis exposure and postoperative light transmission. It is easy to form capsule after operation, and the prosthesis is easy to slide, and there may be a risk of capsule contracture after a long time. If inferior prostheses are used, surface calcification may occur in the later stage.
Not suitable for people: thin skin on the back of nose, nose facing the sky, short nose and severe saddle nose.
2. Bulb augmentation rhinoplasty
Bulb has extremely fine pores and good histocompatibility. The tissue can grow into the surface of the swelling body and be more closely combined with the swelling body. And the swelling is very light, and there is no pressure on the nasal tissue.
advantages: the prosthesis is not easy to shift and transmit light, and has good hand feeling, more natural postoperative effect and no risk of capsular contracture.
Disadvantages: Sculpture and implantation are more difficult than silicone rhinoplasty. If it is infected, it is relatively difficult to take out the prosthesis.
Not suitable for people: severe saddle nose and short nose deformity. If the face is prone to acne, especially the nose, it is not suitable for augmentation rhinoplasty.
3. Ear cartilage rhinoplasty
Ear cartilage has a concave and convex surface similar to peanut shell, and its thickness is thin, which can be obtained through pre-ear and post-ear incision. However, auricular cartilage can not be used as a simple rhinoplasty material, but only as an auxiliary material for rhinoplasty, such as silicone/expanded rhinoplasty, and auricular cartilage is placed at the tip of the nose.
Advantages: there is no risk of rejection and exposure, and its curvature can be used as a material for lengthening the alar and tip of nose.
Disadvantages: limited amount of material can not be regenerated and cannot be used as a supporting material for rhinoplasty; There is a certain absorption rate, and the nose may contract and collapse after operation.
not suitable for people: not suitable for people with poor nasal foundation, such as garlic nose, severe nose collapse and short nose. If what you want to do is exquisite, it is still recommended to consider using costal cartilage as support.
4. Rib cartilage augmentation rhinoplasty
Rib cartilage is a common rhinoplasty material, and the amount of rib cartilage is sufficient, which can better realize the ideal nose shape. There is no risk of rejection or infection, and there is no need to worry about cartilage penetrating the tip of the nose.
advantages: no rejection, hard texture, good support and easy carving.
Disadvantages: the trauma will be a little bigger, there will be a knife scar in the cartilage area of the chest, and the recovery period will be long. Moreover, the costal cartilage is at risk of deformation and absorption, and it is easier to be absorbed if it is placed in a place where there are many soft tissues in the nose.
suitable for people: suitable for serious short nose and saddle nose support materials, often used as nasal reconstruction support materials.
5. Injection rhinoplasty
Injection rhinoplasty has the advantages of small income, quick recovery and no influence on study and work, which makes it very popular in recent years. At present, the most common injection rhinoplasty is hyaluronic acid rhinoplasty.
advantages: less trauma and quick recovery. Usually the swelling can be reduced the next day.
Disadvantages: it can only last for half a year to one year, and the shape of the nasal tip cannot be adjusted. Hyaluronic acid is a gelatinous substance with poor long-term stability. An "Avatar" nose may appear in the late stage of massive injection of hyaluronic acid. The most important thing is that hyaluronic acid is forbidden to be injected into the nose, otherwise there may be serious complications such as vascular embolism.
Suitable for people: suitable for people with low nose and unsmooth lines
6. Thread carving rhinoplasty
Thread carving rhinoplasty is to inject absorbable protein thread with high hardness under the skin of the nose, and shape the nose by pulling and pulling the thread, and finally achieve the effect of increasing the height of the bridge of the nose and prolonging the tip of the nose.
advantages: no operation, less trauma.
Disadvantages: Rhinoplasty thread is a kind of barbed thread covered with umbrella-shaped small thorns. In order to achieve the purpose of padding, it needs to be punctured repeatedly in the same part, which greatly increases the risk of infection. Need to beware of unqualified small workshops to avoid being "blindly attacked" by beauty salons.
