It has been a long time since my nose revision revision revision revision surgery, done without an implant, and it seems like acute contracture came on after a shock T_T I was living thinking that the last surgery would be the end of it, but it's so hard T_T My nose feels tightly squeezed, pulled upward, and over the past month its shape has changed The hospital says the skin at the nasal tip is hard, so another surgery right away is difficult, and they are recommending stem cell treatment, but will it actually work??? It has been about a month since the contracture symptoms started, and I am wondering whether it is better to release the scar tissue with revision surgery quickly.. Or whether it is better to wait a few months after stem cell treatment and then have revision surgery.. Ever since the contracture reaction started, one month has felt like a year.. I am mentally scared and having a very hard time with the thought of waiting a few more months and then having surgery, but I am also worried that if I have surgery right now, the result could be worse.. If anyone has received stem cell treatment, please share your information T_T
