Asian Rhinoplasty with Diced Cartilage Wrapped in Fascia?

A graft of wrapped diced cartilage is sometimes referred to as a ‘Turkish delight” graft. This technique was described in 2000 by a Turkish physician who wrapped diced cartilage in a hemostatic agent called Surgicel. Since then, others have described using the same techniqe wrapping diced cartilage with fascia or human dermis (AlloDerm).  This technique does produce a soft, pliable graft, which may or may not resorb over time.  The cost would likely be the same as any rhinoplasty, with a possible extra charge for the fascia.

Depending on what you are looking to achieve, the diced cartilage wrapped in facial is a great way to achieve a natural appearing enhancement of Asian noses.  This technique avoids the risks of extrusion, infection, movement, etc that is more common with implants.  While cost is an important factor, it shouldn't be the only determining factor.  If you require revision surgery, this will likely cost more than having it done right the first time.
