Is rhinoplasty permanent? How long can it last?

For the sake of beauty, many girls choose to have rhinoplasty, but the plastic surgery industry does not have a very long history. It is only in the last 30 years or so that more common plastic surgery hospitals have appeared. It is said that rhinoplasty can be permanent, but there is currently no actual proof that rhinoplasty can be permanent. So, can rhinoplasty be permanent? Let’s take a look today!

Is rhinoplasty permanent?

Rhinoplasty with prosthesis is generally not permanent. It has a time limit. Generally, the prosthesis must be removed in three to five years. If there is no abnormal reaction to the prosthesis, it can be left in place. Autologous cartilage rhinoplasty is permanent. It is recommended that you must choose a regular medical unit and an experienced expert to perform the surgery, so that your safety is guaranteed and you can achieve a satisfactory surgical effect.

How long after rhinoplasty can I put on makeup

Generally, you can put on makeup about one month after rhinoplasty. If you need to put on makeup urgently, you can put on light makeup two days after removing the surgical sutures on your nose. In order to avoid wound infection and help the surgical incision heal better and faster, it is best to avoid putting on makeup and washing your face within one week after rhinoplasty. You can wipe other parts of your face with a towel.

What are the types of rhinoplasty?

1. Silicone implant rhinoplasty

Silicone prosthesis is surgically implanted into the nose to achieve the purpose of raising the nasal dorsum. Silicone prosthesis is currently an ideal material with good biocompatibility, little tissue stimulation, easy carving, low price and wide application.

2. Rhinoplasty with expanded polytetrafluoroethylene implants

The expanded polytetrafluoroethylene material is surgically implanted into the nose to achieve the effect of rhinoplasty. The expanded polytetrafluoroethylene material is flexible and the nose looks natural and beautiful after the operation, but it is relatively expensive.

3. Autologous cartilage transplantation rhinoplasty

Autologous cartilage tissue is transplanted to the nose to raise the external nose. The donor cartilage is usually taken from ear cartilage, nasal septum cartilage or rib cartilage. There will be no rejection reaction after autologous cartilage tissue transplantation, the survival rate is high, and the appearance is realistic and natural, but it may be slightly absorbed and deformed over time. In addition, cartilage must be taken from the patient, which is traumatic and painful.

4. Injection Rhinoplasty

The principle of injection rhinoplasty is actually similar to that of surgical rhinoplasty. Both achieve the rhinoplasty effect by filling substances into the skin tissue of the nose. The difference is that injection rhinoplasty does not require cutting the skin tissue of the nose. The filling effect can be achieved simply through injection.

Disadvantages of Rhinoplasty

1. It is easy to cause the prosthesis to be exposed: If you undergo a rhinoplasty surgery in your daily life, the prosthesis may be exposed, because surgical rhinoplasty is prone to perforation. In this case, some secretions will overflow at the beginning, and after a long time, the prosthesis will leak out after the rhinoplasty. Therefore, you need to pay attention when doing rhinoplasty in your daily life.

2. Infection: In daily life, infection is very easy to occur after rhinoplasty surgery, because many times mistakes during the operation or improper maintenance after the operation will cause the prosthesis to swell and become infected, and the prosthesis will also leak out of the body at this time.

3. The prosthesis is not easy to remove: In daily life, after a rhinoplasty operation, it is easy for the implanted prosthesis to be difficult to remove from the body, causing the prosthesis to become one with the nose, so you need to pay attention when having plastic surgery in daily life.

Another type of rhinoplasty is hyaluronic acid rhinoplasty. Compared with surgical rhinoplasty, hyaluronic acid rhinoplasty does not have the risks of surgery, but it still causes certain harm to human health.

1. When performing hyaluronic acid rhinoplasty in daily life, if the material of the hyaluronic acid used is relatively poor, it will cause certain adverse reactions in the human body, which will cause the nose and the prosthesis to not fuse normally, resulting in cosmetic sequelae.

2. The second is that if an injection error occurs during the hyaluronic acid injection process, it will cause your nose to become crooked or asymmetrical, so you need to pay attention to it in daily life.

3. In daily life, some people who inject hyaluronic acid may experience skin ulcers, because improper operation during the injection process will cause certain damage to human skin.
