Was curious how long it could take for grafts to soften in the nose tip ? Or can they stay pointy and if that is the case what is the best way to camouflage them? With fascia ?
Answer: Cartilage Answer Cartilage grafts at the tip of the nose typically take time to soften and adapt to their new environment. This process can vary from several weeks to several months, depending on factors such as the surgical technique, the location of the graft, and the individual patient's response. Generally, most of the softening and remodeling of the cartilage occurs in the first six months, but complete maturation can take up to a year or more.

Answer: Consider a permanent nonsurgical nose job camouflage nasal tip cartilaginous irregularities. If you are more than 1 to 2 years after your rhinoplasty surgery, firm points in the nasal tip are usually cartilage. If these are visible, we have had good success camouflaging them with microdroplet Silikon 1000 injections. This may be a more feasible and predictable alternative to additional surgery utilizing temporalis fascia. Thank you for your question and I hope this is helpful. Sincerely, Dr. Joseph

Answer: Nasal Tip Hello and thank you for your question. It really depends on the technique used by your surgeon. If you end up having a revision, you may want to consider having nasal tip projection with placement of a mastoid fascia tip tip graft, which can lead to a much smoother appearance of the nasal tip,. With good surgical technique, you could have an outstanding result. I recommend that you seek consultation with a qualified board-certified rhinoplasty surgeon who can evaluate you in person.
