1. Are there advancements
in artificial nose bone materials? Will
there be soreness or sensitivity after
surgery? |
| |
|
 |
Modern artificial
nose bones have improved greatly,
they are almost all soft silica with
high stability, and are not easily
rejected by body tissue. As for the
after surgery soreness you mention,
it is mostly caused by potential infection
symptoms of the artificial nose bone,
and sometimes rejection by the body.
So when performing artificial nose
bone rhinoplasty, the surgeon must
pay attention to having a sterile
surgery process.
|
|
| |
|
2. My friend’s
nose looks very fake after rhinoplasty;
like a hard rod, is that because
of the material? |
| |
|
|
This is an often
encountered situation; partially
because an unsuitable artificial
nose bone was chosen. This causes
the nose to look too long or have
a too high philtrum; the nose
looks similar to an “elephant
nose,” or may even become an upturned
nose. Another possibility is the
bad shape of the artificial nose
bone. The nose bones we use have
a slightly wide nasal dorsum,
so it has an ergonomic shape and
people will not be able to discover
the secret of your reconstructed
nose. |
|
| |
|
3. If the
nose is altered and looks too
high, what if I do not like it?
Can I ask for a re-alteration? |
| |
|
|
Although the
nose is the symbol of the dimensions
on a face, but it needs to be
suitable. Think about it, if a
round Asian face has a high arched
foreign nose, will it look good?
Thus, before surgery we will carefully
measure the ratio of your nose
and face, so your new nose looks
just right. Usually it takes a
period of adaptation after rhinoplasty.
If you really do not like your
new nose, we will provide three
months alteration services with
no surgery fee. You only need
to pay for the new materials,
but you only have one chance! |
|
| |
|
4. How come
someone’s nose is fine right after
rhinoplasty, but it becomes crooked
or shifts after a while? |
| |
|
|
This situation
usually is because during surgery,
the space under the subcutaneous
skin was not totally opened or
opened unevenly when placing in
artificial nose bone, or the nose
bone was not placed in the correct
position under the bone membrane.
A little part may because of tissue
rejection causing capsular contraction
or unconscious squeezing after
surgery. If the situation of shifting
really occurs, you may need to
consider performing readjustment
surgery… |
|
| |
|
5. Can I touch
or blow my nose after rhinoplasty?
Will it become crooked? |
| |
|
|
5-7 days after
surgery, we usually require the
customer to wear a nose cast or
to secure the nose with bandages.
After a week the nose tissue is
completely fixed, after two weeks
the nose will rarely shift because
of outer force. Of course if you
are still worried, we will recommend
you to choose the use of tissue
glue. During the surgery it can
secure the skin tissue to the
nose bone, and shorten the recovery
period. |
|
| |
|
6. What do
I do if my nose becomes infected
after surgery? |
| |
|
|
As long as it
is artificial material, then there
is a chance of infection. We can
only try to lower the chance of
it occurring. If infection is
discovered after surgery, we will
give a 10-14 day antibiotic treatment.
If there is still no improvement,
we can only remove the artificial
nose bone, and consider surgery
again after a 3 month recovery
period. |
|
| |
|
7. What kind
of person is not suitable for
artificial nose bone rhinoplasty? |
| |
|
|
I think if in
the past three months you have
had inflammatory frontal sinus
or sinusitis, continuous nose
allergies, or have received rhinoplasty
in the past three months and had
infections, you need to first
treat the potential problems before
receiving rhinoplasty. If you
have the problems above, you should
inform the doctor voluntarily,
and let him decide if the surgery
can be performed. If you are worried
about the artificial bone being
infected, don’t forget there is
also autologous cartilage that
can be used. |
|
| |
|
8. If I want
my nose longer, or to have less
obvious nostrils, will just attaching
an artificial nose bone do the
trick? |
| |
|
|
Usually the
reason for an upturned nose is
because the bad positioning of
the lower nose cartilage or nose
cartilage that is too short. If
the cartilage needs to be adjusted,
then open rhinoplasty is required;
taking and adjusting the cartilage
in the nose or even transplanting
cartilage. If we just simply insert
an artificial bone, it not only
might not solve the problem, the
nose may be even more upturned
after surgery. |
|
| |
|
9. I heard
that using Gortex for rhinoplasty
is very expensive, what are the
advantages? |
| |
|
|
Currently, Gortex
has been widely used as body replacement
materials. Because it has high
biological compatibility and stability,
it can connect with body tissue
without rejection. The costs are
around three times the price of
artificial silica nose bone. The
pros are it is easily shaped,
it looks natural, and it is not
easily felt when touched. As for
the cons, it is not easy to remove,
and causes a lot of trouble if
it needs to be removed because
of wound infection. |
|
| |
|
10. Can cosmetic
surgery be used to improve nostrils
that are too large? |
| |
|
|
The doctor will
first evaluate the reason your
nostrils are large. If you have
an upturned nose, you should accept
open rhinoplasty combined with
cartilage transplant for adjustments.
If your nostrils are outturning,
then you need nostril reduction
surgery. If your nose wings and
nostrils are too large combined,
then you need to remove the nose
wing cartilage to have good results.
Anyhow, the nose is a three dimensional
reconstruction, a professional
doctor will give you the best
treatment advice. |
