What are the consequences of finally removing a nasal implant after more than ten years?

In general, removing a nasal implant after ten or more years may lead to loss of the rhinoplasty effect, skin redness, swelling and laxity, risk of infection, scar formation, and nasal depression or deformation. Augmentation rhinoplasty with implants is a common cosmetic nasal procedure that involves placing autologous tissue, allografts, or synthetic materials into the nose to elevate the external nose and improve nasal appearance.
