Asked By:vain_29 in Philippines, PH

Good day Doctor. I had my rhinoplasty with gore tex implant on my nose bridge and ear cartilage on my tip with alar trimming last February of 2014. Just recently, 5 days ago to be exact, I had it removed because it was infected. I just would like to ask if how long should I wait before a possible reconstruction either with rib or ear cartilage.. Thank you.
