I had surgery with L-shaped silicone and donated dermis, and I want complete removal. Not long ago, I went to the three major places. A and B said that if I want complete removal, I can do it, and that we should do complete removal with cartilage repositioning. At C, the consultant said I should get a consultation for complete removal, but when I actually had the consultation, they said to remove the silicone but use ear cartilage to do a cartilage support strut rotation graft revision surgery. But I feel like I don’t want to worry about my nose anymore, so I’m thinking I want to take everything out completely. Could anyone here who has had removal leave me some advice…

Nose Re-Surgery@rhino-redoMay 31 Is there anyone who had their nose implant removed at the clinic where they originally got it done?
The clinic where I had my surgery also gets a lot of revision surgery cases, so I wondered if it might be okay. If I do it at the original clinic, the price won’t be too expensive, and since they know my original nose, I thought it might…
