Are 3D printed implants better?

Hello! Thank you for your question,I can make a more accurate assessment if you can provide me with photos with better lighting, taken from the side of your face and 1 meter away. It is not possible for me to make an evaluation without your photos.It would be more appropriate to decide face to face. Best regards!

Using a CT scan and 3D printing to create a custom silicone implant for rhinoplasty is a cutting-edge technology that some surgeons may offer. This approach allows for a more precise and personalized implant that matches your nose's unique anatomy.

While traditional hand-carved implants can also yield good results, the use of 3D printing technology may offer advantages like improved symmetry, reduced surgery time, and potentially better outcomes.

During the consultation, make sure to ask your surgeon about their experience with both techniques, review before-and-after photos of previous patients, and discuss any concerns you may have. Ultimately, the decision should be based on your individual needs, the surgeon's expertise, and your comfort level with the chosen approach.
