NOSE SILICONE IMPLANT WITH EAR CARTILAGE

In addition to the silicone implants that are commonly used for Rhinoplasty surgery, a combination of placing nasal or ear cartilage graft (the ear basin curve or Concha area) can be performed to correct and extend the nasal length and a tip plasty with less visible incision scars. This technique is used for extending the nasal area, for improving nasal tip looks, and to minimize the risk of silicone coming out.
