Dear user

1. Swelling completely goes down within 3months, same periods is needed for scarring to fade.

2. The amount of height to raise on dorsum depends on each shape of nose.
  It is possible to make a slight curve.

3. Gore tex does not slide over time.

4. Infection rate is about 1%.

Thanks.
