Visible Nose Implant After Rhinopalsty

March 27, 2009
Asked By:vi in westminster, ca

Each day, I believe I can see the implant at the tip of my nose and when I smile, the implant is even more obvious. My tip feels like it is extremely stretched to the point that no blood is running through giving it that almost clear pale skin color. My question is what should I do about this? All I really wanted was for him to fill in the gaps caused from a bump on the right upper side of my nose to even it out. In my situation, would a second surgery cost more? Thank you.
