I already had chronic inflammation, but around April this year, my nose started developing severe contracture, and the nasal tip became red and started turning upward. When they operated, there was a lot of inflammation and pus, so the tissue inside had melted away badly, leaving my nose in a very soft, flimsy state. The only option was to take dermis from my buttock and put it inside my nose... so I decided on the spot to use buttock dermis In the end, the surgery went very well, and even though I’m in the avatar phase, it’s settling in well! I think the biggest thing is the sense of relief that it’s safer now that the silicone is out.
