The use of septal cartilage for rhinoplasty

June 28, 2017
Asked By:genwsj in Taiwan, TW

Hi doctors, I emailed 2 doctors regarding rhinoplasty. The 1st doctor recommended using septal cartilage and ear cartilage. The 2nd one recommended rib/some foreign objects & ear cartilage, he told me that septal cartilage is not stable in the long run. Is this true? I'm A Chinese girl btw, my nose bridge is low and I have a bulbous tip. But I want an Asian nose, small and cute, the most important part to me is the tip. Please share your thoughts. Thank you in advance! :)
