Blue plastic inside nose after rhinoplasty. What is this?

Hello. Great question. Based on your description, it appears as if you are referring to a suture. However, with out any pictures or a personal examination, it is difficult to properly asses your concerns. I will suggest reaching out to your surgeon via email or phone and send him or her images.

Your photo is difficult to interpret - it appears to be a close up of your nasal base, not the nasal bridge, and blue plastic is not well seen. Some surgeons use blue permanent Prolene sutures for nasal tip-plasty, and these occasionally extrude. Consider consulting with a local rhinopasty specialist for evaluation - you may benefit from a physical examination. If you could get a copy of your operative report from your international surgeon, that may add helpful information for you. Good luck. Dr Joseph

Hi and thank you for your question. I'm sorry to hear you are experiencing breathing problems. I suggest you contact your surgeon and inform him or her of the situation. Your surgeon will let you know what next step to take. If after reaching out to your surgeon you decided to see someone here please make sure you seek out a board certified surgeon with extensive experience in rhinoplasty. Find someone you connect with, who will listen to your concerns and provide you with a framework for what is possible.
Best,
Dr. Gary Linkov

Sorry you live far from your surgeon.  When problems or questions need to be addressed, this can be a problem.  I would contact him or her, and maybe they can communicate with you through email, or phone.  Ask for a copy of your operative report.
