Overview

Procedure Principle This is a non-implant rhinoplasty utilizing processed autologous ear cartilage. The procedure is performed by using PRF (Preservative Reactive Fiber), separated from the patient's own blood, to aid tissue adhesion. The procedure is primarily performed using a closed technique that minimizes the incision area; however, an open technique may be used in conjunction if necessary for correction of the nasal tip or nostrils. Procedure Features Use of no implants → Reduced foreign body sensation Performed primarily with small incisions or non-incisions Performed using a method that minimizes the incision area Same-day procedure possible depending on the condition following consultation (takes approximately 1–2 hours) Performed directly by a board-certified plastic surgeon · For those who are hesitant about using implants · For those who desire natural-looking nose line improvement · For those who want a nose change without the burden of major surgery · For those with busy schedules who desire a quick recovery
