It has been 3 weeks since my revision nose surgery, and I had the silicone removed and donor dermis placed. There is redness on the bridge of my nose, and it feels a little stinging and sharp, kind of spicy.. I heard that stinging and things like that can happen during recovery, but the redness is bothering me. It does not show up in photos, and it is only a slight reddish feeling that I alone can sense. Is this okay? It was red even when I had silicone. Will it improve a bit once the donor dermis is absorbed? I am so worried.
