Nose Re-Surgery@rhino-redo

People who had their nasal tip removed, how is it now?

Because the skin over the silicone area became thin, the shape of the silicone was showing through, my nasal tip often got red, and when I consulted several clinics, they said contracture hadn’t happened but inflammation had started. So I was thinking of having the whole nose removed, but I was scared of possible shape changes that might come later, like contracture or curling. So they called it a non-implant surgery: the bridge was reinforced with dermis to support the thinned skin, though now it has almost all been absorbed, and I had revision surgery using cartilage for the nasal tip. They said that because of the Medpor inserted in the nasal tip during the first surgery, when they opened it during the revision, the cartilage had all melted or something like that, so they newly rebuilt the inside with ear cartilage. But as the dermis on the bridge got absorbed, only the nasal tip remained sharply pointed ...
