Today, starting with what autologous rib cartilage is,

its advantages and strengths,

why it is often used in revision rhinoplasty,

and who may need it,

we will explain the special points of Vn Mini Autologous Rib Cartilage.

What is autologous rib cartilage?

It refers to cartilage harvested from the ribs.

When rib cartilage is used in nose surgery, it is your own cartilage, so there is less foreign-body sensation and less rejection response.

It also blends well with the surrounding tissue, so it has the advantage of maintaining a natural appearance over time.

Compared with other types of cartilage,

autologous rib cartilage is abundant and firm.

When inserted, it provides excellent support and has a low resorption rate, which is a major advantage because it can maintain a satisfying shape for a long time.

In particular, for sensitive revision rhinoplasty,

it can be a good option in terms of preventing side effects and inflammation.

Especially,

at Vn,

a method is used in which part of the base of the cartilage is left behind

and only the amount that is truly needed is harvested.

This method

significantly reduces pain

and helps recovery be faster.

Also, since it is rib cartilage,

there is a possibility of pneumothorax,

but it is carefully and delicately performed so that this risk can be minimized through precise technique.

In addition, considering retention in the nose,

only autologous rib cartilage with especially strong durability is selected and used.

Then,
