For those of you considering autologous rib cartilage rhinoplasty,

many often wonder exactly how the rib cartilage is harvested.

​

Today, we will look into

the method of harvesting autologous rib cartilage.

​

How is autologous rib cartilage harvested?

Autologous rib cartilage is widely used these days.

The harvesting process is actually quite straightforward!

We make an incision line close to the rib area,

and as we dissect through the skin, fat, and muscle layers,

the rib cartilage will appear.

​

The important factor when harvesting rib cartilage is that the skin layer varies from person to person!

​

For patients whose ribs are easily visible when they take a deep breath,

the cartilage is located at a shallow depth - this is the type with thin skin and muscle layers.

​

For those with thicker skin or muscle layers where the rib cartilage is tucked further inward,

it is located deeper, so we dissect down to that depth to harvest the cartilage.
