When is cartilage needed after primary rhinoplasty?

May 9, 2024

Curious when cartilage is needed for a primary caucasian rhinoplasty? Rib cartilage is most commonly used from what i’ve read so far. But I mostly want deprojection and a smaller nose, also slope and smaller top. I feel like a doc would have to remove cartilage if anything, not add cartilage.
