I'm finally going to have the material in my nose removed next week. My nose has quite a history After my nasal bone cracked, I don't know what came over me, but while having the nasal bone reset, I also had three functional nose procedures, my dorsal hump trimmed, donor rib cartilage particles added to the bridge, septal cartilage used for the tip, tip binding, a support strut?, and various other thingsㅡㅡ I got lured in by the claim that there would be no complications because it was a no-implant procedure... I really have no words... Anyway, maybe six years after the surgery? Perhaps since I developed sinusitis, the foreign-body sensation has become worse, along with pain between my eyebrows, slight deformation of the tip?, pulling at the tip, columella problems, dissatisfaction with the shape, and so on. I decided to have it removed because I don't want to live with my nose like this for the rest of my life. When I made the appointment, I wanted it removed as soon as possible, but now that the date is approaching, I'm so scared—what if it collapses, what if it becomes retracted? I hope the surgery goes well so I can write a removal review

Nose Re-Surgery@rhino-redo2d Hi everyone. Finally.....
Hi everyone. I’ve received so much help from this community, so I thought I’d leave a review too. I’m really bad at writing, so please bear with me. First, in 1990 I had a silicone implant and ear cartilage. 2. In 2005, the silicone…
Nose Re-Surgery@rhino-redo2d If everything is removed cleanly, can I live without worrying about capsular contracture for life?
Before surgery, you don’t develop capsular contracture even if you touch your nose roughly, or even if the nasal bone fractures, right? Would it be the same after complete removal? If all implants and cartilage are removed, can I assume…
Nose Re-Surgery@rhino-redo2d Why use a splint and nasal packing?
[Clinic A] says they use a splint and nasal packing even for closed surgery, while [Clinic B] doesn’t. What’s the difference? Is there a special reason for using them even though they’re more uncomfortable for the patient? I forgot to ask…
Nose Re-Surgery@rhino-redo2d Should I remove it or not?
What I am wondering is this: capsular contracture can happen whether I remove it or not. Then, if I leave it alone, there is a chance nothing will go wrong, so would removing it just create more problems? [Clinic A] also told me not to…
