Why an implant is palpable and visible through the nasal tip: rib cartilage reconstruction and dermis reinforcement
A case where a silicone implant became palpable, the nasal tip skin thinned, and asymmetry developed after a previous rhinoplasty. The implant was removed, the nasal tip and septum were reconstructed using sliced autologous rib cartilage, and artificial dermis was used for reinforcement.
