Is silicone rhinoplasty permanent?

Silicone gel rhinoplasty is to make a small incision at the upper edge of one or both nostrils, from the incision to the root of the nose to do periosteum separation, and then implant the suitable sculpture of the nasal model under the dorsum of the nose, and finally suture the incision. The effect of nasal bridge heightening is immediately visible after the operation, and if the candidate is not satisfied with the effect, the silicone gel prosthesis can be removed completely after a period of time, which will not cause problems such as skin laxity of the dorsum of the nose. Silicone is a very good implantable material, laboratory and clinical trials have proved that silicone prosthesis and human tissue compatibility, non-toxic, harmless, plasticity, non-carcinogenic, and inexpensive, cost-effective. However, the hardness of silicone gel is high, and it is easy to cause displacement if it suffers collision after rhinoplasty. If the silicone gel is displaced, it is necessary to remove the prosthesis and reshape the nose. With the development of science and technology nowadays, the implant material has made great progress, the traditional rhinoplasty material may need to be taken out after a certain period of time and then re-implanted with a new prosthesis, but nowadays the filler material has been gradually improved, and the silicone material can be permanently retained in the nose. At the same time, if the nose is not affected by external impact or other factors, silicone rhinoplasty can be permanently shaped.
