Hello, I am a young Asian female who underwent rhinoplasty almost two years ago. I received an I-shaped silicone implant to augment my bridge and septal cartilage was used to raise my tip. I would like to ask whether silicone implants can and often do last forever if they do not become infected. I have heard of something about calcification? If you think silicone is not likely to last forever, what options would you suggest for a permanently augmented bridge? Thank you
