Will there be light transmission (translucency) after rhinoplasty with implants?
Disease description:
Recently, I went to a beauty clinic for silicone nasal implant surgery, but lately I've noticed some light transmission through the nose. Is it possible for light to shine through after getting a nasal implant?

Translucent appearance may occur after implant rhinoplasty. If the nasal skin is too thin, it can easily be stretched and damaged, leading to light transmission. During the recovery period, avoid consuming spicy, fried, or other irritating foods as much as possible. Keep the incision site clean after surgery to prevent infection. After undergoing implant rhinoplasty, apply antibiotic ointment to the wound. If the wound is left uncovered, minor exudate may appear; gently wipe it clean with sterile cotton swabs and avoid contamination.
