I’m at week 5, but every day it feels tight, and my nose keeps looking more upturned… I didn’t have everything removed—I only had the silicone in the bridge removed and had revision surgery on the tip. Can this really happen? If it doesn’t return to normal, does that mean I’ll need a third surgery…? If anyone has been through the contraction phase, please share your experience. I’m seriously going crazy; it’s becoming upturned like a contracted nose. If I file a complaint with the clinic, would this fall within the scope of aftercare available after six months?
