The advantages of self tissue augmentation rhinoplasty

Dr. Chang has been doing rhinoplasty with self tissue since nearly 20 years ago. Example 1 is Mrs. Chang whose nose was done by Dr. Chang in 1989.

Example 1

Figure 1: Before surgery. Figure 2: Augumentation rhinoplasty with Implant + ear cartilage in the tip of her nose, 12 days after. Figure 3: 11 years follow up. ( Please note: Cosmetic philtrumplasty was perfomed at the same time.)

Example 1 14 years follow up

張醫師你好：我的鼻子其實是長得不錯的，好多朋友都覺得我那個是富貴鼻，側面看是挺高的！可是每當正面看的時候，山根的地方就不見了，真的不明白為什麼？我自已常常希望能找出問題來，就是找不出來！我想問，假如我只在鼻樑的位置隆鼻，是否都可以嗎？還有請問醫師會用什麼材料去隆呢？是一輩子的嗎？那鼻頭方面會會怎樣呢，鼻樑的材料會從鼻頭穿出嗎？還有價錢方面大概要多少？幾天會復完呢？問題蠻多的，真的不好意思！謝謝！
