Finally booked it… it does not feel real. My nose has a hump shaved down and ear cartilage in the tip. It has already been over 10 years, but there have been more inconveniences in life—an overly high nasal tip, signs of contracture, a hard nasal tip, anxiety about inflammation, and so on—so I decided to have it removed. I consulted at five places and booked the one I felt most drawn to. Thanks to this community, I gained a lot of information and think I developed my own criteria for finding a clinic. I hope my implant-removal journey, and everyone else's here, ends well. T_T

Nose Re-Surgery@rhino-redoAug 31 Thinning of nasal bridge skin after nose filler and hyaluronidase
