L-shaped Silicone in My Nose, But Want to Get Rid of the Hard Tip?

While your nose is not at any immediate danger, it is likely that at some point you will require revision surgery.  Since silicone is a foreign material, it doesn't become incorporated into your body.  It will continue to put pressure on the skin of your tip and thin it.  

L-shaped silicone implants are a quick and easy way to get a more projected (taller), more refined nose.  The problem that you are starting to encounter is a common one for many patients that have rhinoplasty with an L-shaped implant.  Unfortunately there is a risk of extrusion and infection of the implant.  When the skin overlying the implant thins to the point of extrusion, it must be removed asap.  In your situation, there's no need to panic since that has not happened, but the best option is to replace the silicone implant with your own tissue.  You will be able to achieve the shape you want, without people noticing you had work done.  

Most patients with a silicone implant have a hard tip.  Some will have thinning of the skin and extrusion. But many do not. So leave it alone for now and it may never progress to extrusion.
