It’s been over 10 years since I had my nose done with silicone and ear cartilage. Last year or the year before, my nose swelled up, so I went to an ENT, and they said it seemed like inflammation. Back then I took medication, got injections, and went through such a whole ordeal. After that, it settled down well, but the ENT doctor recommended removing the silicone from my nose. Since then, it swelled up just one more time, and it hasn’t swollen again up to now. But I’m worried that if I leave it in longer, my nose might become abnormal, so I’m planning to remove it before it’s too late. I’m considering PRM. How is that place? I looked up information and people said it was okay, so I’m thinking about it. If anyone knows anything, please let me know I’m from out of town, so this is really hard right now.
