Why does the tip of the nose droop after prosthetic rhinoplasty?

The most common side effect after rhinoplasty is implant movement or deviation. The reason for the movement of the prosthesis is that the prosthesis is not accurately placed between the nasal bone and the periosteum. The silicone will move when it is under the skin, so the skin will become thinner and translucent. After a period of time, the nose tip will droop and the nose tip skin will become thinner. In severe cases, it can penetrate the nose tip. If the position of the prosthesis is not ideal or it moves, the prosthesis must be removed first, the space between the nasal bones and periosteum should be accurately separated, and silicone or expanded material should be placed in the gap.
