Silicone Implant Infection

Description

A silicone implant infection, also known as peri-implantitis or infection around a nasal implant, occurs when harmful bacteria build up around a synthetic nose implant used in rhinoplasty or “nose job” procedures. Also referred to as silicone implant infection, nasal implant infection, or infected nose job, this condition often causes symptoms like redness, swelling, pain, tenderness, and unusual yellow or red discharge from the nose. In severe cases, you might notice foul odor, fever, or even the implant becoming visible or protruding. Due to biofilm—a protective layer created by bacteria—these infections can be stubborn, sometimes requiring removal of the implant and a revision surgery for proper healing. Early detection and care are essential for preventing lasting damage and restoring both comfort and appearance.

OM Plastic Surgery in Seocho (near Sinsa Station Line 3, Exit 4) provides comprehensive surgical and non-surgical aesthetic procedures focused on the nose, eyes, face, body contouring, and men’s concerns. Nose (Rhinoplasty) • Autologous Rib Cartilage Rhinoplasty This uses the patient’s own rib cartilage to build or reinforce nasal structure for durable support and shape. It is suited for complex primary cases, weak cartilage, or revision needs. • Revision Rhinoplasty This surgery corrects unsatisfactory outcomes or functional issues after a prior rhinoplasty. It addresses scar tissue, asymmetry, and structural weakness to restore contour and breathing. • Primary Rhinoplasty This reshapes the bridge and tip to improve balance with the face. Techniques include dorsal refinement or augmentation, tip projection/rotation, and cartilage support. • Deviated Nose Septorhinoplasty This straightens a crooked nose and realigns the septum to improve symmetry and airflow. Functional and aesthetic goals are addressed in one operation. • Hump Reduction Rhinoplasty This refines a dorsal hump to create a smoother nasal profile. Cartilage and bone are reshaped while maintaining structural support. • Bulbous Tip Rhinoplasty This narrows and defines a wide, rounded tip using cartilage shaping and suturing. Projection and rotation are adjusted to sharpen tip contour. • Short Nose Correction This lengthens and supports an upturned or retruded nose. Cartilage grafts and soft-tissue techniques restore proportion and tip position. • Droopy Tip/Long Nose Correction This elevates and supports a downward-pointing tip and adjusts overall nasal length. Tip support grafts and septal work refine rotation and projection. • Alar Base Reduction This reduces wide nostrils or flared alar bases through precise wedge or sill excisions. The goal is a natural, narrower base that matches the bridge and tip. Eyes (Eyelid Surgery) • Upper Blepharoplasty (Double Eyelid Surgery) This creates or refines an eyelid crease and removes excess skin or fat. The result opens the eyes and sharpens the eyelid contour. • Lower Blepharoplasty (Under-Eye Fat Repositioning) This smooths under-eye bags by removing or redistributing fat and tightening skin. A more rested lower lid-cheek transition is achieved. • Revision Eyelid Surgery This addresses asymmetry, scar-related issues, or crease irregularities after previous eyelid surgery. The procedure restores a defined, natural-looking fold and eyelid function. • Ptosis Correction This elevates a low or heavy upper eyelid by tightening the levator muscle. It improves visual field and eyelid height while matching crease design. • Canthoplasty (Inner/Outer Corner Surgery) This refines the inner or outer eye corners to widen the eye shape and adjust slant. It is tailored to maintain eyelid stability and a natural canthal angle. Facelift, Neck, and Chin • Facelift (Rhytidectomy) This lifts and tightens sagging skin and SMAS layers of the midface and jawline. It restores definition to the cheeks and reduces jowls. • Neck Lift This tightens platysma bands, removes excess fat/skin, and defines the cervicomental angle. A smoother, firmer neck profile is created. • Thread Lift (Silhouette Soft) This minimally invasive lift uses barbed or cone threads to elevate mild facial laxity. It provides subtle repositioning with short downtime. • Double Chin Liposuction This removes submental fat to sharpen the jawline and neck contour. Small incisions and fine cannulas sculpt the under-chin area. Body Contouring • Liposuction This contours areas such as abdomen, flanks, thighs, arms, and back by removing localized fat. It targets shape and proportion rather than body weight. • Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty) This removes excess lower abdominal skin/fat and tightens separated muscles. It flattens the abdomen and improves waist definition. • Buttock Augmentation/Lift This enhances buttock shape using fat transfer or lifting techniques to correct ptosis. The goal is rounder projection and a lifted, youthful silhouette. • Calf Reduction This slims bulky calves through selective fat or soft-tissue reduction and contouring. Proportions are improved while preserving natural leg lines. Male Procedures • Male Blepharoplasty This tailors upper or lower eyelid surgery to masculine anatomy, avoiding a feminized crease. Puffiness and excess skin are reduced for a sharper look. • Male Rhinoplasty This refines nasal shape and function while maintaining a strong, masculine profile. Dorsal lines, tip definition, and septal support are individualized. • Gynecomastia Surgery This treats enlarged male breast tissue using liposuction, gland excision, or both. A flatter, firmer chest contour is achieved with hidden or minimal scars. Chin and Jawline • Chin Implant This augments a recessed chin with a biocompatible implant to balance the lower face. It improves jawline projection and neck-chin definition. Fat Grafting and Small Enhancements • Autologous Fat Grafting This harvests fat from one area and transfers it to face or body to restore volume. Common targets include temples, cheeks, nasolabial folds, and buttocks. • Dimpleplasty This creates natural-looking dimples by tethering the dermis to cheek muscle. The depth and placement are customized to the smile pattern. • Forehead Reduction (Hairline Lowering) This advances the hairline to reduce a high forehead. Scalp mobilization and fixation create a shorter forehead height. • Forehead Implant This smooths or rounds a flat or irregular forehead using a customized implant. It enhances contour and harmony with the brow and temples. • Accessory Breast Tissue Removal (Axillary Breast Excision) This removes extra breast tissue in the armpit that bulges or causes discomfort. The contour of the underarm and bra line is refined. • Nipple Correction Surgery This addresses inverted or enlarged nipples and asymmetry. The procedure improves projection and proportion while protecting function.
