After rhinoplasty 10 years ago, I had been living with it more or less okay, but then my nasal tip started drooping and the silicone began showing through, so my nose looked longer and longer. I was stressed about it, and without shopping around, I went to the clinic where I originally had it done, had a consultation, and got revision surgery~ Revision surgery definitely felt less financially burdensome when I had it done at the same clinic as before! For the nasal tip, they only adjusted the position of the existing septal cartilage + ear cartilage, and removed the 2.5 mm silicone that had been with me for 10 years. I got all my stitches removed today, and I’m not used to how soft and rounded my nose feels. I’m also slightly disappointed with the design, but I’m going to think of it as swelling for now and wait.. Still, since I removed the silicone, I’m glad I can live with a little less worry about the risk of side effects:D
