It has been over a week since I had my nasal implant removed! Even right after the surgery, I felt like one side of my nose was a bit more lifted, and after the stitches were taken out, it seemed even more noticeable It's still healing, so maybe that's why..? Will this go down? I felt like the lifted side of the nose was moving a bit better, and I wondered if that was because I was using the muscles on that side a lot.. I took time off work, and now that it's almost time to go back, I'm getting more and more worried. Has anyone here who had a removal surgery got any advice?
