Currently, many nose augmentation techniques are widely advertised, leaving customers wondering which method is truly suitable for their nasal structure and desires. Below is an objective medical analysis from Dr. Nguyen Quoc Dinh.
1. Rhinoplasty with cartilage grafting (South Korea)
Technique: Soft artificial cartilage is used to raise two-thirds of the nasal bridge, while autologous ear cartilage is used to cover the nasal tip to minimize pressure and abrasion on the nasal skin.
Advantage: The surgery is quick (30-45 minutes), reasonably priced, and has a fast recovery time.
Suitable for: The client already had a slender, elongated nasal tip, a strong nasal bridge and septum, with the only drawback being a slightly low nasal bridge.
2. Structural Rhinoplasty
Technique: The complete nasal reconstruction includes: creating a supporting structure to elevate and lengthen the nasal tip using septal cartilage, raising the nasal bridge using micro-implant biological cartilage (Surgiform/Nanoform), and protecting the nasal tip with autologous cartilage.
Advantage: It can correct most difficult flaws such as short, upturned noses, humped noses, and large, broad nose tips, creating an elegant, graceful nose shape that conforms to the golden ratio.
Suitable for: The nose has many imperfections, thick skin, a large tip, or has undergone minor surgery and the bridge has collapsed.
3. Rhinoplasty using autologous rib cartilage
Technique: This is the pinnacle of rhinoplasty surgery. The surgeon takes a piece of cartilage from the patient's own 6th or 7th rib to create a support and shape the nasal bridge.
Advantage: With its 100% biocompatibility, non-allergic rejection, and lifetime durability, it is the "golden key" to rescuing severely damaged and retracted nasal implants.
Suitable for: Nasal retraction and scarring can occur after multiple failed surgeries, allergic reactions to artificial materials, nasal deformities due to trauma, or congenital defects.
