Surgeon performed a Rhinectomy (partial nose amputation) instead of minor rhinoplasty. Will spreader grafts cause pain?

Asked By:Eclectic592550 in Bellaire, Texas

I need a 25yr reconstructive rhinoplasty VET for this one! I learned the HARD WAY and lost my nose, a near full amputation. He's done this to other travelers but its a HORRIFIC thing to live with. There is constant pain! Most all soft tissues, cartilage GONE! all rib and for no reason! I need a full nose reconstruction with Spreader grafts! I want to ask if Spreader grafts cause pain or will also feel unnatural inside the new framework? TY
