Hello Rayan,

The best and most consistent way of augmenting the size of a small nose is through the use of cartilage grafts. It is always best to use your own tissue and we normally use cartilage from your nasal septum, ears or rib. The decision of what tissue to use is made depending on the amount of cartilage needed and what type of tissue is required (soft, flexible cartilage or more rigid and stronger cartilage). This allows us to give patients a long lasting result that will age well and maintain its result. Good luck.
