I Got My Stitches Removed

It's day 7 after removal. These days, seeing people having a hard time emotionally after removal makes my heart hurt too. I had an L-shaped silicone implant with ear cartilage placed on top, and there were no other manipulations. Since more than 15 years had passed, the cartilage and silicone had become very visible, so I decided to have them removed. Two places mentioned cartilage repositioning, while one place firmly said there was no need because there had been no manipulation and the nose would not turn up, so I had it done there. They packed my nostrils with cotton, and after it was removed, the sizes looked different, but now they have returned to place. The nasal tip did not turn up either, but on the day the splint was removed, I lightly touched the bridge and noticed that the area below the glabella seemed sunken, like an indentation, creating an uneven contour. When I asked, they said the area compressed by the silicone had settled and would come back up, but I was worried After a few days, fortunately I could no longer feel the sunken area. Today I went to the clinic, got the stitches removed, and they prescribed Rizaben for one month to prepare for the contracture phase. They said it only works if I take it diligently on schedule. There is still swelling, so when I wear a mask, the bridge gets pressed down. I think I need to avoid pressure for the time being. Also, the bridge is still slightly painful, and sometimes I get throbbing, sharp, poking pain. Everyone who has had removal, stay strong, and let's get through the upcoming contracture phase well~~
