I had rhinoplasty with silicone on the nasal septum, and I want to remove only the silicone. I see removing even the septal cartilage as a major surgery, and since it was harvested from my own body, I thought there wouldn’t be inflammation later. But I think the biggest side effects I’m worried about are inflammation and contracture, so if I leave only the nasal tip, could any other problems occur?
