Gore-Tex rhinoplasty: big implant, feeling pressure and pain on the dorsum, is this an issue?

Getting gore tex or silicone implant, highly tempting in time, skills and money saving for the surgeon dealing with asian and afroamerican noses, is a disastrous decision and shoud be precluded.You are likely developing intolerance, rejection extrusion and probably infection, do remove ASAP that implant before it pierces your skin.I do many filipino rhinoplasties and never ever use such artificial prostheses, only own's patients's tissue from donor cartilage sites, same with black noses. You need to seek better professional help.

You were prescribed antibiotics for infection? These symptoms are serious and may represent a problem with your nasal Gortex Implant. I am concerned that an infection or tissue rejection problems may require you to remove your implant. If your implant is removed, you could consider cartilage grafts instead of Gortex or Sialastic for your dorsum. You may need to wait 6-12 months before considering revision surgery with cartilage grafts. Please discuss your options with your surgeon.
