movingMay 19, 2011
Hi, I got my rhinoplasty about a year ago in another country but i have been seeing redness and white color near 2mm is silicone placed in my nose bridge. I am considering to go back for re surgery, I want to take out silicone and replace it with something. What is another SAFE options? I used ear cartilage already for my tip, can i use rib cartilage on my nose bridge? do i even need one since it was 2mm? What is the cons of using rib cartilage on the nose bridge? Thank you!
