Does Silastic Implant for Rhinoplasty Look More Fake Than Cartilage?

Smokey86
I am thinking whether or not to have a nose surgery. My doctor said I do not have enough carilage on my ears and I also do not want a scar on my breast.  Will silastic implants look more fake? Will silastic implants last a lifetime?
