I’m East Asian with a very flat nose bridge, and I recently had a consultation for a rhinoplasty. The surgeon recommended using donor rib cartilage to build my bridge. If I move forward with this surgery, will the results be permanent? It seems that articles/studies on using irradiated costal cartilage report very different results; some studies say that this type of graft resorbs drastically, while other studies say it resorbs minimally.
