Strong, Stable Support for Complex or Revision Nose Surgery

Rib cartilage grafts provide strong, durable support for rhinoplasty—especially in revision cases, collapsed noses, ethnic noses requiring structural augmentation, and patients needing major reconstruction. At UE Plastic Surgery in Gangnam, our female board-certified rhinoplasty specialist uses rib grafts to rebuild and refine the nose with natural shape, lasting stability, and safe breathing function.

鼻形成術で肋軟骨を選択する理由

• Superior strength for major structural support
• Ideal when septal/ear cartilage is insufficient
• Needed for complex revision or contracted nose repair
• ブリッジとチップ構造の正確な成形が可能
• Long-lasting stability with low risk of collapse
• Biocompatible and natural—your own tissue, no implant risk

Who Benefits From Rib Graft Rhinoplasty?

• Revision rhinoplasty cases
• Severe bridge collapse (saddle nose)
• Contracted or short nose deformity
• Previous implant removal or infection
• Trauma-related nasal deformity
• インプラントではなく天然軟骨を求める患者
• 鼻の輪郭をはっきりさせるために構造的増強を必要とする民族的鼻

肋軟骨テクニックの種類

• Dorsal onlay graft: Restores/augments the bridge with smooth definition
• Extended spreader grafts: Restore middle vault and breathing
• Septal extension graft: Stable tip support and rotation control
• 柱状支柱：基部の安定化と先端部の改良
• 翼縁/バッテン移植：陥没を矯正し、鼻孔を支える
• Grafted camouflage (fascia/SMAS): Smoothes contours, especially under thin skin

構造設計により反りを防ぎ、自然なラインを保ちます。

What to Expect During Surgery

• Duration: ~3–5 hours depending on complexity
• Harvest: Small rib incision (usually 2–3 cm), low-visibility

回復とアフターケア
