I had rhinoplasty in 2006 and have just been living with it, but now it has been too long, and I feel like the silicone is moving and it’s uncomfortable, so I’m planning to have removal surgery. I don’t remember exactly what materials were used inside my nose. I think they probably used silicone and ear cartilage, but since it has been a long time since the surgery, I’m curious whether removing them will cause deformation of the nose shape.
