Patient: Description of condition (onset time, main symptoms, hospital visited, etc.): Hello! Dr. Binbin, I plan to silicone nose job, but I heard some doctors say that silicone prosthesis placed for a long time will lead to serious bone resorption. It sounds very scary, I want to confirm in you, and now rhinoplasty in the end is better silicone or tumescent ah? Why? I trust you a lot. Li Binbin: silicone chin augmentation has seen bone resorption, but not serious, does not affect health and appearance; silicone nose augmentation caused by bone resorption has not seen, so do not worry. Silicone and tumescent are the two most common rhinoplasty materials, each has its own advantages and disadvantages, can not say which one is better than the other, the benefits of silicone is cheap, simple surgery requires less time, unsatisfactory removal and easy to modify, the most widely used for the longest time proved to be safe, but a small number of late displacement phenomenon. Inflatable is relatively soft and good fit, not easy to touch the contour, and their own soft tissue grow together without worrying about the later displacement, etc., but more expensive, more complicated to do the surgery takes a long time to cause relatively more infections, more difficult to repair, etc.
