Now I am on day 23 after rhinoplasty. I had a mild septal area bump corrected, the nasal tip reduced by 4 mm, and the nostril width reduced. Because of swelling of the nasal dorsum and tip with heat, stiffness, pressure, and pain, I am still taking antibiotics continuously. It is now the date to come in for the 23-day progress check, and the doctor said to come then, but given this situation, should the silicone be removed early? I am really worried about many possible side effects and possible contracture symptoms that might occur at an unknown time. I keep feeling like I can’t keep living one day at a time like I’m carrying a time bomb; I regret having had the surgery so much, but if the silicone is removed early, will swelling, pain, etc. improve a bit? About the nostril asymmetry, the surgeon said this degree does not show to the naked eye and is done well…

Nose Re-Surgery@rhino-redoAug 17 Even if you remove everything from the nose, if the nasal tip was manipulated, won’t the drooping stay the same?
Then did everyone who had full removal or early removal just go ahead with it knowing that the surgically manipulated nasal tip might droop more in the removed nose later on? I’ve been looking only at full-removal reviews lately, but no…

The columella in the middle is gradually leaning to the left axis. The length of my right nostril rim seems to be getting longer, and I can feel the right alar cartilage sinking down. When I turn my head, the nasal deviation is also…
