Nose Re-Surgery

Nose, third surgery: donated rib vs autologous rib cartilage

I'm having decision paralysis, what would you choose if you were everyone here? They said I can choose myself. I wanted donated rib cartilage because of the scar and pain, and both my first and revision surgeries had no problems with donated rib cartilage.. But there's talk that from the second revision onward, autologous rib cartilage is much better. Should I do autologous rib cartilage..?.. This is just my own thought, but I actually think autologous rib cartilage is dirtier. In the process of taking it out of my own body, if they can't properly sterilize the skin bacteria and things like that, wouldn't that cause a problem..? I heard donated rib cartilage is sterilized with radiation before it comes out. Or is it overwhelmingly better because it's my own body material...
