What are the hazards of silicone nose augmentation?

Patient's question:

My bridge of the nose is relatively low, and my nose looks unattractive. Even with makeup, it doesn't look good, and I feel a lot of psychological pressure. Recently, I've been thinking about getting a nose implant, but I don't understand what the dangers of a nose implant are. What are the dangers of a nose implant?

Doctor's answer:

The hazards of silicone nose augmentation include the potential for recurrent silicone drooping, breathing difficulties, or silicone leakage. During the surgical procedure, if the silicone is not properly secured, it is more likely to droop postoperatively. The degree of silicone drooping can also affect normal nasal breathing. Therefore, when undergoing silicone nose augmentation, it is essential to choose a Level 3 class hospital or a reputable cosmetic and plastic surgery clinic.
