8 years ago, I had silicone, ear cartilage, and septal cartilage done, and it’s been a little over a month since I removed only the silicone. My nose on the 23rd day and now looks exactly the same. Honestly, the 10th day after removal and the 23rd day were similar too. When removing only silicone, everyone worries about how smoothly it connects, but in my case, my original nasal bridge was completely flat, and from that state, silicone was placed and the nasal tip was raised to make a slightly upturned “beoseon” nose, so after removing only the silicone, the transition is not smooth. For people whose nasal tip is a bit droopy, even if you remove only the silicone, there is a very high chance it may actually become more of a semi-beoseon nose. Anyway... aside from the nasal tip looking a bit high, I like it. And I have no idea at all whether contracture has come or not.. There’s no difference It’s possible not to get contracture, right..? Also, I didn’t remove it because of inflammation or contracture, but because I slightly disliked the chalk-like feeling~ Even now, when I touch it, I can touch it firmly and it doesn’t hurt, so there is no pain. And the scar tissue? that formed still hasn’t gone away. So when I touch my nose, it feels bumpy. Well haha, it can’t be helped For those worried about the transition, I think it would be good to do some cartilage adjustment while removing the silicone. I’m just going to live like this! I had it removed in Daegu, and if you’re curious where I had it done, please look at the comments on my post from the 23rd day after removal~~
