Rhinoplasty with Cartilage abroad

 Rhinoplasty with cartilage graft is a specialized nose surgery that uses cartilage tissue to enhance or rebuild the nasal structure. It is ideal when the nose needs extra support - for example, to increase projection, improve shape, or fix issues after previous surgeries. This method allows for natural-looking results while respecting your facial features.

Most often, the surgeon uses your own cartilage. It is usually taken from the nasal septum, ear, or rib - depending on what your anatomy allows. Rib cartilage is especially strong and is often used in more complex reshaping. If your own cartilage is not available, a synthetic or donor graft may be considered.

This approach suits different goals. Some clients want to add definition to a flat or low bridge. Others come for revision rhinoplasty and need structural repair. For those with naturally soft cartilage - common in some ethnic facial types - a graft can add needed support without removing too much natural tissue.

The surgery is done under general anesthesia and usually takes 4 to 6 hours. The surgeon carefully sculpts the cartilage and places it in a way that fits your anatomy and desired result. The goal is both functional and aesthetic: a nose that feels right and looks balanced.

Recovery is similar to standard rhinoplasty. A splint is worn for 6-7 days. Swelling gradually improves over several weeks. Final results appear between 6 and 12 months, as the graft settles and becomes part of your natural structure.

This type of rhinoplasty is one of the most advanced techniques. It requires a deep understanding of facial anatomy and expert hands. That is why at Reviva, we work only with surgeons who have extensive experience in cartilage grafting and deliver results that feel natural and uniquely yours.
