A woman has undergone face-saving surgery after a botched nose job left a silicone implant bulging from underneath her nostrils.

The unnamed patient sought out experts in Thailand’s capital Bangkok, where medics offered pro-bono surgery to fix the rhinoplasty gone horribly wrong.

The patient did not reveal where she had her nose job done, but reports suggested it was at a cheap and likely unlicensed business.

Photos of the woman’s nose show the sliding implant causing a bubble-like bulge beneath her nose, which later revealed itself to be the base of her silicone nose implant.

Plastic surgeons at Natchaya Clinic promised to help the woman and have since removed the entire implant from her nose by pulling it out of the open wound.

The procedure lasted only a few minutes but may have potentially face-saving results once the woman recovers. Doctors have urged those seeking plastic surgery to only pay for licensed establishments in the country.

Last month another Thai woman revealed her similarly botched nose job, which caused her face to become inflamed and saw her silicone implant stick out from between her eyes. She also received surgery free of charge to have the problem corrected.

Kenyan socialites like Huddah Monroe and Vera Sidika, have readily admitted to undergoing the procedure.The most fascinating nose plugs
