Rate of rib graft resorption/warping?

A rhinoplasty specialist will be able to comprehensively address the issues you have with your nose. DCF (Diced cartilage fascia) provides permanent results without the risk of warping or resorption of en bloc rib cartilage, and with a much lower rate of migration, infection, or extrusion than synthetic grafts. With a rhinoplasty surgeon experienced in this technique, diced cartilage wrapped in fascia is a consistent, reliable, long-lasting technique for creating dorsal augmentation with excellent results. Results are very surgeon dependent, so choosing the right surgeon is important. Good luck! @drdonyoo

Hi Derek, thank you for the question. Your own cartilage (rib) use, depends on Surgeon's preference. Warping rate varies between %1-26. Resorption/Infection rate is too low, less than %5.. (You can't do something to prevent these).If you are sensitive about rib graft, ear cartilage graft should be used. RegardsOpr.Dr. Cem AltindagIstanbul
