Nose Implant Showing, Normal? (photo)

It is not normal for your silicone nasal implant to be visible. You should discuss your problem with your surgery or another rhinoplasty surgeon who can examine your nose.

There are options for augmenting the nose with your own cartilage which is carved into a graft and has a much lower risk of extrusion.

You can learn more about Bridge Augmentation at my reference link below.

It's not uncommon for silicone implants to become visible because as they exert pressure on the skin, the skin begins to thin.  Your implant does not appear it is in need of urgent removal, since there are no signs of infection or extrusion.  At some point in the future, the implant could be replaced with tissue from your own body.  

It is never normal for a nasal implant to show through the skin. This generally implies that the implant is extruding (being pushed through the skin by the body).  You will need to see you plastic surgeon as soon as possible to be evaluated.
 

Not normal to see the actual silicone implant.the silicone can be removed and replaced with septal cartilage. This can be done at the same time. See a very experienced revision rhinoplasty surgeon. 

       You are early in your recovery, and I have a somewhat difficult time evaluating your concerns from the one picture.  The implant can be trimmed or repositioned if necessary or it can be removed and replaced with cartilage grafts.  Find a plastic surgeon with ELITE credentials who performs hundreds of rhinoplasties and rhinoplasty revisions each year.  Then look at the plastic surgeon's website before and after photo galleries to get a sense of who can deliver the results.  Kenneth Hughes, MD Los Angeles, CA
