Pros and Cons of Fascia Grafting in Rhinoplasty?

March 14, 2013
Asked By:focused30 in Denver, CO

In my recent pre-op visit my surgeon informed me that he will be doing both fascia and ear cartilage grafting to build my bridge. What are the risks and is this normal for my first procedure? Or is this type of grafting usually just used in revision surgery? Will there be a longer healing time associated with these procedures?
