The costal cartilage is well used in these places, and the nose looks good
Before the transformation, the costal cartilage needs to take off its "coat" - the perichondrium, which is a layer of connective tissue surrounding the cartilage to protect and nurture the cartilage.
After the periosteum is peeled off, the pure white costal cartilage will be exposed. At this time, the doctor can transform it into the desired shape according to the requirements.
Due to different uses, the required costal cartilage morphology is different.

Usage 1 of costal cartilage:
The doctor used a lancet to cut and modify the costal cartilage into long pieces of costal cartilage.
The function of the rib cartilage slice is just like the steel bar used for building a house, which is used as a scaffold to support and build a shape. But how to build the scaffold should respect the foundation of your nose. If the scaffold is built higher than your nose The bearing capacity and nose are prone to problems, and the effect is not ideal if it is too low.
Therefore, it is a great test of technical skills to balance the height of the stent and safety. Let's see how our rhinoplasty experts reconstruct the nose tip:
▼ Before reconstruction of nasal tip anatomical structure
▼ Reconstruction of nasal tip anatomical structure
▼ After reconstruction of nasal tip anatomical structure

Now let's take a look at the front and rear effects of the "anatomical reconstruction of the nose tip". The nose tip has grown taller, and the nostril has also stood up.
Usage 2 of costal cartilage:
Rib cartilage can also be used to improve the problem of nostril exposure caused by the upward retraction of the nasal alar edge.
▼ Nasal flange retraction
▼ Use the cartilage slice to push down the nasal alar to reduce the exposure of the nasal columella
▼ Effect of nasal comprehensive treatment combined with nasal alar retraction correction

Usage 3 of costal cartilage:
The intact costal cartilage can be used as a scaffold, while the costal cartilage transformed into fine particles can improve the depressed nasal base.
▼ Rib cartilage cut into fine particles
▼ By injection To fill the nasal base
▼ When the nasal base is raised, the decree lines will become shallow
Of course, costal cartilage can also be carved in one piece to fill the nasal base.
As for the method of filling, it depends on the operation plan formulated by the doctor.
The above is the usage of costal cartilage in semi costal nasal synthesis. It can be seen that costal cartilage has a wide range of uses and great improvement effect, so it is also regarded as a "* * weapon" in rhinoplasty. Of course, the above should also be based on doctors' understanding of how to use them.
