I get it now

After much research, it is clear to me how my decision on using an L-shaped silicone was the wrong choice. It's a mistake that I made and have to deal with. I am more comfortable about my decision on using goretex+cartilage. This time around my new nose will be even better. I am sure of it. :) Please keep me in your prayers!

Praying all goes well for your revision . Hoping your results come out just as good if not better . Will they use your cartilage this time for implant maybe?

I like your sense of humor in your review. That's so not fun you have to get a revision!!!! :( But I am confused...what implant? In your nose? How/why? If you specified in your review, I guess I missed it. I am so curious!

I had an implant placed to raise my nose bridge... I trusted my PS judgment, but unfortunately, my body is rejecting it...

Oh wow, I never heard of that before. I am not an expert obviously..I have only heard of people taking carliledge from their ears and ribs to raise bridge. Are implants common??? I am so sorry to hear your body is rejecting it. At least you know your body is great at protecting you from what it thinks is harmful! What will your PS do during the revision?

Once again, he will build up my nose bridge & fix my nasal tip. I love my nose the way it is so he will try his best to make it look the same. BUT since he'll be using my own cartilage, the nasal bridge will not be as high as it is...

Implants are common here in Asia, but I don't think much so in the states.

I understand....some people are aching to remove bone, others add...its a very interesting phenomenon. We all want that "perfect amount" I guess. So I know you researched and updated since your last comment...are you going to opt for a different shape implant or still use your own cartilage? Your revision is coming up so I do wish everything to go well and you are just as happy, if not happier!

That sucks...smhh Im sorry you have to go through it. I am praying it all works out for you. & please pray for me as well as I will be going in , soon to have mine done. :/ lolol I loved your results too , initially I think it was a bit over whelming at first but with nose like ours the new nose quickly becomes loved..lol It was a nice transformation. My doctor doesnt want to use any silicone implants etc only my cartilage for my bridge towards to the end of my nose. I wish silicone was more reliable via the nose but it isnt. but too me it gives the most prominent appearance you know. so , anywho like you I will be using cartilage, hopefully I should have enough being its only on the bottom part to the top of my bridge im ok with as it looks pretty good side wise from the top .lolol smh anywho , wishing you the best chica!!! You'll be fine !!

what a nightmare.
just kidding... God is good so I am hopeful.
I was cleaning my nose and noticed that a suture had busted open OR because of the pressure, the implant is showing on my left inside of my nostril. My doctor had told me during my last check up that there is a possibility that I am allergic to silicone. I was well aware that this would be a possibility, but didn't think it could happen to me. I am a student nurse so I am well aware that it is possible that the body will try to reject an implant. I wish I could have known ahead of time, but when it comes to surgery, you have to take risks.
I love the way my nose turned out but as these weeks past by, there has been things going on which possibly will lead to (worse comes worse) a possible revision. I'm unaware if it's too soon, but hey, I have to deal with it.
I talked to my doctor... we just have to see how things play out from here.
Do I regret getting my nose done. Heck no! I do wish I didn't have these kinds of complications but, "shh happens" and you just have to deal with it.

Hi Mel! I'm praying all goes well. I had to get stitches. There were no signs of infection so I'm praying that maybe the incision site just opened...
