Is It Possible to Remove Silicone Injected on my Nose Years Ago?

October 20, 2012
Asked By:sandySF

I had a silicone injection in my nose 20 years ago in Asia. I had tried to have it removed ( taken out ) 15 years ago as my nose was and is still is so big and wide. I asked many PS but I was told there is a small chance, almost none, to take the silicone out. As time goes on, my nose is getting wider and uglier. I am not sure if it was I didn't do enough research or it is really true the injection can't be taken out period. Could you possibly help me to provide some answers and or solutions?
