Hello I had surgery 3 years ago, but I was young then, so I didn’t really look into it properly before getting my nose done. So I don’t remember clearly, but I vaguely think the doctor said it was 7 mm. That’s quite a lot, right? I didn’t even know that back then Anyway, it was done with Gore-Tex (another doctor felt it and said it might possibly be Gore-Sili too..), and my nasal tip was done with ear cartilage. I’m not sure whether septal cartilage was inserted, but another doctor also felt it and said it seems like it was... damn it For now, I’m certain that I want to remove it. My nose is slightly bulbous, so I want to leave the cartilage in place, but in this case, is it not okay to remove the septal support strut? And I went to three clinics last week, but I never heard anything about contracture? But after coming here, I see many people talking about contracture..? Does contracture originally happen to everyone after removal? I really want to remove it, and the clinics say it’s easy, but the more I look into it, the more worried I get, so I’m asking people with experience like this
