What Is Temporal Cartilage Rhinoplasty? What Are The Benefits?
You are wishing for an elegant Korean-style nose; however, your nose skin is too thin or you have gone through a surgery before with the result of having your dorsal exposed. In those cases, temporal cartilage rhinoplasty is the perfect option for you.
What is temporal cartilage rhinoplasty?
Temporal cartilage rhinoplasty is the method of correcting the nose using temporal cartilage to coat the nasal bone, preventing the bone and cartilage deformity. The cartilage can also be used to fill the protruding bone and correct the nasal cartilage flaws. If the customers had had skin damage or skin redness, they can use the combination of temporal and artificial cartilage.
However, one disadvantage of having temporal cartilage rhinoplasty is that the swelling period will be much longer, reaching up to 2 months. After that, the cartilage will contract, resulting in only 80% of the original size. Therefore, if the rhinoplasty is for aesthetic purposes, the nose tip should be better coated in septal or ear cartilage.
