This procedure adds dimension to the bridge of the nose to reshape and contour the face.  Synthetic materials are available for bridge implants, however experienced certified plastic surgeons are expressing their dislike for the unnatural appearance and warning potential patients of serious complications that can occur when using synthetic foreign materials in the body. <br />Synthetic graft material used for bridge implants often include silicone or other synthetic materials that have a higher rate of rejection, infection, deformities and in some cases additional plastic surgery is required to fix the complications. Allergic reactions and more serious side effects have also been known to occur due to foreign materials being introduced into the body and being rejected.<br />It is recommended to use natural graft material to enhance and shape the bridge of the nose. The best natural ingredients include fascia and dices cartilage. Materials already taken from the body are less likely to be rejected or become infected.<br />Board Certified Plastic Surgeon Dr. Jay Calvert MD has this message for those interested in synthetic graft materials being used for bridge implants.<br />“I really do not like synthetic implants for the bridge unless other techniques have failed or there is some compelling reason not to use diced cartilage and fascia.  It just works so well and the complications are much more manageable then say an extruding PTFE implant or other synthetic (silicone, etc.).  I find that this can give the nose all it needs to create better definition and better dorsal aesthetic lines.”<br />,[object Object],To learn more about natural graft materials for bridge implants or to schedule a consultation please visit http://JayCalvertMd.com<br />Reference Box:<br />Dr. Jay Calvert is a well respected Board Certified Plastic Surgeon with offices located in the Beverly Hills, Los Angeles area. Dr. Calvert is a member of The American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery as well as the American Society of Plastic Surgeons.  For more information: Plastic surgeon Los Angeles: Please visit http://www.Jaycalvertmd.com<br />
