Nasal abscess may have been an allergy to prolene

I have watched a recent episode of botched with a lady diagnosed with a prolene allergy resulting in a nasal tip abscess! I found an article on such an allergy in the JLO. https://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/journal-of-laryngology-and-otology/article/nasal-tip-abscess-due-to-adverse-skin-reaction-to-prolene-an-unusual-long-term-complication-of-rhinoplasty/82EA6FC06E1A2C87B59DCE1AF23C4190#:~:textAllergic%20reactions%20to%20Prolene%20are,nasal%20tip%20swelling%20and%20redness. As I suffer from eczema and contact dermatitis to synthetic material, I may well have had an allergy to the blue prolene sutures buried in my nose that then caused the abscess.

Adding a before and after chin shaving, bullhorn liplift, rhino, fat transfer and ulthera.

Here is a before and after photo. Chin shaving did not make much difference to the front but did make a difference to the side profile which is what I requested.
