How low exactly is the complication rate of synthetic implants in Asian Rhinoplasty?

carlos gomes
I understand that using synthetic implants in rhinoplasty has a low risk of complication such as infection and extrusion but how low exactly is that? In a scale of 0% to 100% what is the complication rate of Gore-tex and silicone implants, would that be 1%, 2% or something around 10% or 15%? (I'm considering having a rhinoplasty using implants cause I've been informed that autologous grafts have the risk of resorption over time and synthetic implants usually leads to a more noticeable change).
