On what day did you have early nose implant/cartilage removal? I had a closed rhinoplasty and it’s 2 days before my stitches are scheduled to be removed, and I’m planning to ask about early removal when I go to get the stitches removed. They slightly shaved my hump, placed ear cartilage as a columellar strut, and also used ear cartilage for the nasal tip. My original nose already had a high bridge and tip, but after surgery it’s completely a Pinocchio nose, and my parents, coworkers, and friends all feel sorry for me, saying my original nose was already high but now it’s even higher, so I want to remove it For those who had early removal, how much did it return to your original nose? If there were any side effects, please let me know too.
