Asked By:Dazzling730972 in Los Angeles, California

I got the latera nasal implants over 2yrs ago, and from day 1 they have always been visible on the sides of my nose (I have thin skin). In the last 6 months, the bumps on the side of my nose have become harder and more visible. In addition, it's hard to wear glasses because it causes pain in that area. I am unsure what to do to get rid of these "growths" now that so much time has passed. Any ideas?
