Please click my profile to read the previous post! It has been 2 months since I had everything removed from my nose without leaving anything behind. Until just 2 weeks ago, the tip of my nose felt itchy and it brought on PTSD, but now it does not itch at all. I guess that was probably part of the nerves healing! Now I also touch my nose a little and gently blow my nose too. My friends do not know I had the implant removed unless I tell them! It feels so refreshing to have no foreign material inside my body. If you have any questions, leave a comment!
