Abstract

Rhinoplasty, commonly known as ‘nose job’ is one of the most common facial plastic surgeries. It is a highly versatile procedure to enhance nasal aesthetics, improve functionality, or both. Nowadays, various techniques for reforming the nose structure depend on each patient’s condition and preference. Autogenous graft, which site is from the patient itself, is now commonly used. Rib cartilage is an increasingly popular autogenous graft material due to its plenty of supply and strength. This study aims to provide a comprehensive overview of rib cartilage grafting in rhinoplasty, covering critical aspects such as pre-procedure evaluation, surgical techniques, postoperative care, and potential complications.
