I currently have visible silicone, visible cartilage inside my nose, and mild signs of inflammation, such as occasional headaches and redness of the nose, so I want to have it removed. Honestly, I’m wondering whether I’ll be satisfied after taking it out, and since my first surgery failed, I’m now terrified of lying on the operating table again (so revision is absolutely out). But I’m still young, and I wonder whether I’ll be satisfied if the shape drops significantly... My surgery is scheduled for next week. If I keep thinking this way, should I deliberate more? But every clinic said that because my skin is thin, the silicone could break through. Since it must be removed, I feel like I’ll be living with a ticking time bomb.
