Cartilage-Wrapped Rhinoplasty

What is Cartilage Shield Rhinoplasty?

Cartilage Shield Rhinoplasty, also known as S-line Rhinoplasty, is a cosmetic surgery technique designed to correct common nasal imperfections in Asians such as a low, short, or flat nose. With this method, the surgeon uses an artificial nasal bridge combined with a layer of autologous cartilage or Megaderm to wrap the nasal tip, creating a natural S-line contour.

The cartilage used for the tip shield is typically harvested from the ear, making it highly compatible with the body.

Discover the Cartilage Shield Rhinoplasty Procedure

Similar to standard implant rhinoplasty, this technique involves inserting an artificial bridge into the nasal cavity. However, instead of a plain implant, the surgeon wraps it with a layer of autologous cartilage or Megaderm at the nasal tip. The final step is shaping and securing the cartilage to achieve the desired nasal contour, followed by aesthetic suturing for a refined result.

Cartilage Shield Rhinoplasty Procedure at AZ NOSE

Clients will receive a direct consultation with the surgeon to clearly understand their nasal condition and determine the most suitable rhinoplasty method. Before surgery, a comprehensive health check is conducted to ensure maximum safety. The surgeon then performs the procedure, reviews the nasal shape before closing the incision, and applies a splint to stabilize the contour. Finally, post-operative care is provided following medical standards to minimize the risk of complications after surgery.
