I had my nasal silicone implant and ear cartilage removed, and now it’s almost week 4. Recently, when I press my lips together tightly or lower my philtrum, the columella pulls slightly. Looking at other people’s reviews from the contraction period, they say they feel tightness along the nasal bridge, but I don’t have that at all; it really pulls only exactly at the columella. Could this also be the contraction period Maybe it’s just my imagination, but it feels like the columella has also gone in slightly, and I’m really going crazy I barely had swelling, so I don’t even know whether any residual swelling remains, and I keep getting sad thinking, what if this is the final result? Maybe I shouldn’t have removed it
