If Rib Cartilage is Used For My Rhinoplasty, How Long Will it Last?

Rhinoplasty with rib cartilage lasts forever once the initial healing is done. There is usually no need to go to the rib since most patients have enough cartilage in their septum or ears to do the job with a lot less pain.

Autologous rib cartilage( your own) will last forever.  Just an FYI, rib cartilage can warp( bend) and may resorb a  bit over time.
