I have surgery scheduled for Monday, and I was wondering if anyone has had surgery like mine. They'll remove the L-shaped silicone and remove the ear cartilage from the nasal tip, then use the remaining ear cartilage on one side, not to add height to the bridge of the nose, but to fill in the irregular areas. They said they'll use septal cartilage for the widened nasal tip area. I said I really hate septal cartilage, and they asked what I would use then, and said it would be fine if done well, so I booked it Has anyone tried this? My nasal dorsum turned red, the silicone shifted, and the silicone drooped downward. It's not severe, but I'm doing it because I'm worried it could become severe It's gotten better now, but it's so expensive that I'm also hesitating Has anyone had something similar done?
