After <Originally, the area between my eyebrows was higher than a foreigner’s, but that disappeared after removing the silicone, and the nasal tip is slim and pretty!> I had rhinoplasty with silicone + ear cartilage, and after 15 years, I decided to remove the silicone.
I decided to remove the silicone because it started too high from between my eyebrows + as I got older, the silicone became increasingly visible, so I searched for hospitals.
Among hospitals famous for removal, I had a consultation at Guk Won Seok Plastic Surgery, and I was drawn to the director’s confidence and surgical experience, so I booked the surgery.
I had the silicone & cartilage removed with a closed approach, and simple repositioning of the nasal tip cartilage. It was done under sedation anesthesia, so I slept briefly and woke up with everything finished. While I was resting in the recovery room, the director showed me the removed silicone + cartilage + capsule and said I would feel relieved now!
I’ve had the splint removed now, and I’m scheduled to go tomorrow to have the stitches removed. So far, the most uncomfortable thing has only been applying ointment to the wound inside my nose with a cotton swab, so I haven’t really had any pain or discomfort.
Since I removed the silicone, of course the height of my nose became lower, but I’m satisfied with the shape of the nasal tip.
During the consultation, he explained that if he tied the cartilage while repositioning it, the nose shape would not spread out like my original nose. I think it turned out just like he said.
There is still some bruising and swelling left, so I need to watch it a bit more, but I don’t think my nose will suddenly spread out a lot just because the swelling goes down. So far, I’m very satisfied!
If anyone is considering silicone removal, I recommend removing it as soon as possible and finding comfort.
