Nasal implants are commonly used for cosmetic purposes to build up the nasal bridge, project and refine the tip of the nose; nonetheless, it may produce some risks which mostly involve infection and movement of the nasal implant. In the event of infection, the implant begins protruding or almost protruding through the skin and the skin becomes thin. In such case, taking antibiotics may not be enough; the implant should be removed by the revision surgery. In addition, if your nose is red, painful with a fever and headache, this may also be a sign of infection.
Nose implant removal is also performed when the nose is deviated after the surgery, causing an unnatural look or unsatisfying result. During the removal, the original implant is removed and the new implant that can fit perfectly for one’s nose is replaced, for example, if the nose bridge is too high, the wider implant will be used instead of the original one. Nasal implant removal is a highly specialized procedure; consequently, it is important that you select a board-certified plastic surgeon.
