I finally removed the silicone.. I left the nasal tip cartilage alone.. because I wasn’t confident I could handle the aftermath.. I removed it this morning and came home now to post this.. Even while writing this, it aches and throbs.. The surgery.. was over in less than 10 minutes... I still have tape on the bridge of my nose, so I’m not sure about the exact shape.. and the swelling is probably gradually increasing too.. The nasal bridge does seem lower, but I don’t think it’s a huge difference.. when I saw it right after surgery.. And when I looked very closely, the nostril on the side where the silicone was removed looked slightly indented.. right now... that’s what I’m worried about..ㅡㅡ The doctor couldn’t have accidentally touched the nostril, right.. I’m trying to think it’s because of scar tissue inside or blood.. but I’m worried.. Anyway, now that it’s out, I do feel relieved.. I really cried every day and agonized over it before removing it.. but now that the silicone is gone, it does feel good.. Now the key is whether the nostril is really indented, and what the shape will look like after all the swelling goes down.. It looks okay right now, but I really hope the final result is okay too.. so I never have to put an implant in again... Sigh.. Oh.. I brought the removed silicone back from the hospital. They had said they put in 2~3 mm, and when I looked, that seemed right.. It keeps hurting I should take my medicine.. I’ll keep posting updates!
