Prosthesis or expansion for augmentation rhinoplasty?
Nasal augmentation surgery is a common type in the plastic industry. Its technology has been quite mature, but there are several types of nasal augmentation surgery, such as prosthetic augmentation, costal cartilage augmentation, injection augmentation and expansion augmentation, and costal cartilage augmentation and injection augmentation are all easy to distinguish and choose, but many beauty seekers are not able to distinguish between prosthetic and expansion, So before the operation, the choice of these two items is also very difficult. So today, I will lead you to analyze these two types of augmentation rhinoplasty, so that you can understand their differences more clearly.
1. Material difference
Prosthetic augmentation rhinoplasty uses a special medical silicone rubber product, which is a medical silicone polymer material. This material is not only used in cosmetic and plastic surgery, but also used in other clinical surgery, that is, it can not only be used as a nose pad It can also reconstruct other organs of the body, even artificial blood vessels , artificial heart, etc. and Bulky body Rhinoplasty It is a special polytetrafluoroethylene material ， It is flexible and elastic. Like silica gel, it also has very good human compatibility, and does not cause cancer or sensitization. Its * big feature is that its surface has micropores, in which human tissues and blood vessels can grow and form connections, * and then it is like self tissue.
2. Effect difference
The nose augmentation prosthesis has the basic shape of the nose itself, which can be carved arbitrarily on the basis of it. It can be prefabricated into a nose prosthesis with various shapes and models, such as nose tip, nose wing, nose columella, etc., with good elasticity and three-dimensional sense. and Bulky body Rhinoplasty although also It has a certain degree of flexibility, but its elasticity and stereoscopic sense are relatively poor, so it is not suitable for carving and shaping. The effect of supporting the nasal columella and tip is poor. However, because the expanded material is soft, it closely fits with the autologous tissue after implantation, so the appearance and feel after surgery are more natural and realistic.
3. Postoperative differences
Prosthetic rhinoplasty will not change shape and feel over time. However, if the nasal augmentation is extended for a long time, it will lose its original flexibility and become very hard, and then its appearance The nose will be stiff and unnatural.
4. Price difference
The price of nose augmentation prosthesis varies, and beauty seekers can choose according to their own conditions. Because of the high technical requirements for doctors and the difficulty of carving, the expanded nose augmentation is generally about twice as expensive as the prosthesis.
