Swelling after a rhinoplasty can last for up to and even longer than a year. Since you are only 4 months out from your rhinoplasty, I would wait. The tip may get smaller.

Wait for secondary rhinoplasty
Steven Wallach, MD answers: Do I need a revision Rhinoplasty?
I had a closed Rhinoplasty nearly 4 months ago. I have noticed that the swelling has gone from the bridge, but the tip doesnt seem to have gone down as much. I feel that the tip of my nose from the side now looks too big for the top part which has gone down, making my nose look unbalanced. By four months, I feel most of the swelling should have gone in the bridge and tip. Should i think about a revision?
