I had Rhinoplasty done four months ago, and I feel that the end or tip of my nose from profile view looks a little round. Also, there are two lines on each side of my nostrils that don't look too great. I'm more concerned about the rounded tip, though. I'm thinking about having another Rhinoplasty done, as I've heard most of the swelling has gone down by now and the final shape will be set. Could someone please give me some advice on how my nose looks and if I should go through another surgery?
You will not see your true final result for at least one year after a rhinoplasty. Unless there is something dramatically wrong with your early result, you should wait and see if some of your issues don't resolve with time. Repetitive rhinoplasty surgery often causes more problems than it solves so don't take this lightly. Plus, looking at your photo, your tip doesn't look bad at all.
Your nose looks really good. There is some fullness in the supratip area (above the tip), and in the columella region (below the tip). At four months, there is usually still some swelling present, so it is best to leave it alone.
You can address it with your surgeon as well.
If it is above the tip area, this might be because you don't have a supratip break point. This helps to distinguish your nasal tip from your nasal bridge and should be above your nasal tip about 1-2mm. Also the angle from your tip as it approaches the columnella might be a little obtuse and the angularity could be adjusted so that it has more of a contrast as the tip gradually transitions into the columnella, the area below the tip. Four months is still early though and things can change for up to 2 years. You should send me a picture for me to look at it now.
