LitzyBro
I had a rhinoplasty and alar base reduction a month ago, when PS removed the tape from my nose he found a big blister under the tape in my left nostril, he told me wash the blister with water an soup 3 times a day until scab get off. Finaly scab felt down last Sunday,since then the scar looks so red and I feel a hole between my nostrill and nose tip .PS said the reason was oily skyn but I think it was the tape, dermatologist recommended visderm H 01% for 5 days and then dermatix. What u think.
