I had my nasal implant/materials removed at a hospital specializing in nose removal because of the side effect of cartilage showing through. After that, I had been living without any major problems, but suddenly, about 10 months later, the area around the tip of my nose started to get red and swollen. There is also slight pain. The redness has gone down a bit now, but it’s still about this much. Has anyone here had the same experience as me?
