Rib Cartilage Rhinoplasty Cost and What to Know Before Your First Rhinoplasty
Rhinoplasty has long been a common aesthetic procedure, because the nose is an important feature in the middle of the face that is easy to see. The nose helps shape the face and give it definition, which can boost your confidence in daily life.
S45 Clinic introduces one of the rhinoplasty techniques chosen by many young men and women today, rhinoplasty with your own rib cartilage. We look in detail at the surgery, its key features and the cost of this technique.
What Is Rhinoplasty
Rhinoplasty is surgery on the nose to improve its shape, or surgery needed after an accident, for example to lift the nasal tip to the right angle or to shape the nose into a smooth curve.
As well as helping people feel more confident, rhinoplasty can correct various nose problems, such as a bulbous nose, a nose with no bridge or a short nose, and can reshape the nose after a serious accident that broke, twisted or bent the nasal bones. Because of these benefits, many people continue to choose rhinoplasty.
Rhinoplasty With Your Own Rib Cartilage

Rhinoplasty with your own rib cartilage uses cartilage from the chest area, which is translucent and very flexible. The surgeon makes an incision of about 1.5cm to 3cm under the breast fold to remove 1 to 2 pieces of rib cartilage, each about 2cm to 3cm long, then carves and shapes the cartilage to augment the nose where needed.
Who Rib Cartilage Rhinoplasty May Suit
- people with little or thin nasal tissue, for whom silicone rhinoplasty may give a nose shape that looks artificial
- people with a short nose or a low nasal structure who want more definition
- people who want a longer nose with more projection
- people who want to correct the shape of the nose, or who have had several previous rhinoplasty operations
Key Features of Rhinoplasty With Your Own Rib Cartilage
- it uses rib cartilage from your own body rather than a foreign material, which can lower the chance of inflammation and infection
- the nose shape is designed to suit the proportions of your face
- it can help lower the chance of a red or thin nasal tip and of implant extrusion
- a soft look, with no visible silicone edges
How to Choose a Rhinoplasty Technique That Suits Your Face
Most people would like their rhinoplasty to go well the first time, without spending time on revisions. So before deciding on rhinoplasty, learn about the surgery in detail, including each rhinoplasty technique, your current nose shape and the shape that would suit your face, the materials used, the cost of rhinoplasty, and how to look after yourself before and after surgery, so that the result is as close as possible to what you want.
