If you're worried about side effects like collapse or curling, they say don't remove it and just get a revision surgery instead.. I want to remove it though T_T What am I supposed to do? I want to leave nothing behind in my nose. But they say those side effects don't apply to everyone, so I still want to remove it.. Is the hospital just being conservative?
