I’ve booked a revision rhinoplasty with Director Lee Byeong-hwo at ㅁㅇㄷㅇ, and this time I’m using autologous rib cartilage, right? Looking at reviews from people who had surgery with autologous rib cartilage, there were so many people saying the rib harvest site hurt more than the nose, so I’m curious how painful it is... When harvesting autologous rib cartilage, I guess there will inevitably be a scar there too, so I’m also wondering whether the scar is severe... I heard this can also vary a bit depending on the director’s skill and experience. I do trust the director, but after seeing posts saying it hurts, I’m unnecessarily curious and worried.
