Dr. Li Qiang
Rhinoplasty with implants involves inserting materials of a certain thickness—such as expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE), silicone, or autologous cartilage—into the nasal tissues. This procedure is safe and painless, leaves no visible scars after surgery, and produces a natural and realistic appearance. After undergoing rhinoplasty with implants, patients should schedule regular follow-up visits at the hospital. In terms of diet, avoid spicy, irritating, and overly salty foods, and consume more fresh fruits and vegetables appropriately.
