Can this small bump on nose be removed? If so, how? (Photo)

Asked By:Chillisauce in Oakland, CA

Had silicone implant to heighten the nose bridge 17 years ago. Recently noticed that perhaps the implant shifted downward with time and possibly created this small bump as my nose was smooth for years after the surgery. It is for sure not a pimple! I know it's probably trivial as removing the implant could do more damage. If I do remove the implant, I do not plan to replace it. What can be done or do I just leave it alone? Thanks.
