It’s been a little over 2 years since I had my nose implant removal surgery. I had an implant in my nose for over 10 years, but over time it started to feel a little tight, and after surgery breathing became more uncomfortable than before, so I eventually decided to remove it. It’s been over 2 years since the removal, and now breathing is definitely easier than before, and I’m really satisfied. I hadn’t raised my nose very much in the first place, so even after removal the shape of my nose didn’t change all that much. Also, before, my nose was a bit tight and seemed like it might become contracted, with a slight upward pull, but after removal that part naturally settled down too, so personally I really feel I made the right choice. I hope my experience can be even a little help to anyone deliberation about nose removal.
