I’m really debating whether to use autologous rib cartilage or donated rib cartilage I went to ㅇㄹㅇ and ㅂㄴㄴ, and there was a place that said either one is fine... The others who thought it over with me also said there isn’t much difference between donated rib cartilage and autologous rib cartilage, and that even autologous rib cartilage can be absorbed... People who maintain their results without drooping honestly amaze me I’m more worried because it’s a revision surgery Should I visit more clinics? Does autologous rib cartilage really hurt a lot...?
료이키텐카이 I had revision surgery with autologous costal cartilage. Of course, autologous costal cartilage can also be absorbed, but I understand that donor costal cartilage has a much higher chance of that... I’ve actually seen people who had revision surgery because donor costal cartilage was absorbed, but I’ve never seen anyone have revision surgery because autologous costal cartilage was absorbed.
바웅이잉 [@Ryōikitenkai] Right? Autologous costal cartilage does seem better... but because I’m worried about the pain, I keep turning my attention to donor costal cartilage.. Where did you have it done? Until when did it hurt?
료이키텐카이 [@Baungiiing] I had my revision surgery at Miho. For me, about 2-3 weeks? At first it was a bit uncomfortable to move, but after about 2 weeks, daily life was possible except for slight throbbing. But this really varies so much from person to person, so it won’t necessarily be like that for everyone. I’ve heard some people say it doesn’t hurt at all...
고죠백종원 I had revision surgery with donor costal cartilage, and it got absorbed, so in the end I had a second revision with autologous costal cartilage at ㅍㄴㅅ .. It really differs by person, and honestly it’s luck too, but I do regret it. I keep wondering whether it would have been absorbed if I’d used autologous costal cartilage for the revision surgery.
워리드 It’s really bearable lol I’d recommend it if choosing between the two. The nasal tip gets higher too!
