I'm planning my rhinoplasty for a dorsal hump removal and slight augmentation and have consulted 2 doctors. No plans to do any tip work. They gave me different opinions and I don't know which one to go with. Dr. 1: (closed approach) 1.5 mm silicone implant - not thick so will minimize possible infections Does not recommend using own cartilage because result might be bumpy Dr. 2: (closed/open approach) Using ear cartilage wrapped in fascia, with layer of stomach fat to hide irregularities
