If he tries to fix it with ANY of your flesh (cartlidge) or even someone who has donated cartlidge that does not have wegeners, YOUR wegeners will completely destroy it within months! I have a piece of plastic in my nose that HAD cartlidge from one of my ears on both sides of it. It was fuller after the surg. and started getting smaller as my cartlidge was taken by the wegeners. But the little plastic was enough to just look "normal" enough for me to be happy. Just a little tidbit of my experience. Any questions, just ask! love Ya <3
thanks for sharing, Lilly that is intresting that you have a "plastic" inside and feel well. from the outside you just look great
if I will go for a surgery one day, I will check with you about more details.
