I've been about 3 years since my surgery and I have silicone in there. But lately it seems crooked and like it might soon break through the skin. The more I look into it, the more I get scared that more side effects will come, so suddenly I really want it removed I'm going to consult about my nose in a few days, and if they say side effects seem likely or that it's indeed crooked, I plan to remove it this year. But people around me keep asking if it would be a waste If anyone has removed silicone, please tell me how it was I wonder if it looks too different from the original nose or got lower or became wider.
