Hello, this is BT Plastic Surgery!

If you have already undergone rhinoplasty more than once,

you may wonder whether further surgery is no longer possible,

or whether a collapsed nasal tip can be restored.

In particular, for those who have a bulbous nose and are considering revision surgery,

rhinoplasty revision using donor rib cartilage may be the answer.

Why donor rib cartilage?

Traditional autologous rib cartilage required an incision to harvest your own rib,

so there were concerns about scarring, pain, and recovery time.

However, recently, the use of medically purified donor rib cartilage

has become more active.

Donor rib cartilage

can be used without harvesting rib bone, so there is no need to worry about scars,

and because a sufficient amount can be secured, it is advantageous for restoring collapsed structures.

Some people worry about side effects because it is donated rib cartilage,

but sterilized processing is used to reduce tissue reactions and lower the possibility of infection.

Correcting a bulbous nose is not simply about reducing the nasal tip.

A bulbous nose has a blunt, spread-out nasal tip,

but simply trimming the cartilage

has limitations in revision surgery.

Especially when cartilage was already damaged or removed in the first surgery,

a new support structure is needed,

and this is where donor rib cartilage plays a major role.

By using donor rib cartilage,

it is possible to improve nasal tip support by reconstructing the collapsed nasal framework,

creating a higher, more refined nasal tip.

By correcting a bulbous nose, you can expect an improvement in the overall line.

For nose revision surgery, design is important, but structural stability is key.

Cases as difficult as a bulbous nose especially require a systematic plan using donor rib cartilage.

BT Plastic Surgery Clinic’s ENT specialist personally

handles everything carefully, from diagnosis using 3D CT,

checking cartilage condition,

to post-surgery recovery.

If you are considering revision surgery, we recommend that you do not just worry about it, but receive a thorough consultation with a medical professional.

The surgery takes about 1 to 2 hours,

and you can go home immediately without being admitted.
