Can Silikon 1000 Be Removed if Injections Were Done Less Than 6 Month Ago? (photo)

Can silikon 1000 be removed if injections were done less than 6 months ago? i found a couple of doctors that specialize in the removal of injected silicone. I had micro droplets injected in my nose in mostly above the dorsal hump. i can still feel the silicone in my nose so maybe the silicone has not fully integrated into my tissue? Heres a photo. any info will help thanks.

Correcting Silicone Injections

While it is not possible to remove the silicone that was injected to your nose several months ago, there are other techniques which can be utilized to so-called melt away the silicone that was injected. One of these techniques includes injecting diluted kenalog into the area which breaks up and the melts away the silicone. I recommend you consult with someone experienced in using liquid injectable silicone.

Hi, Unfortunately, I dont think this silicone can be removed. It would do more harm than good to remove the silicone. If you have a visible deformity, you may consider a revision rhinoplasty. Best, Dr.S.
