Keep your surgeon informed about your concerns and be patient. You appear to have had a "reduction" type rhinoplasty, where the cartilages, which define the tip are made selectively reduced, so that the tip either appears more refined and/or upwardly inclined. At three months, all nasal tips are "boggy", which means that the nasal skin is accomodating to the smaller cartilaginous framework and in the process of shrinking to fit. Some physicians will inject very small amounts of steroid to accelerate the remodeling of the scar, however this is not entirely a "freebie", as steroids are potent drugs, which can cause spider veins, skin and fat atrophy, as well as depigmentation. In my practice, we photograph a lot, so that the patient can see a chronological progression. We do a lot of hand holding and wait for a minimum of 12 months before proposing further surgery. I know it's hard not to scrutinize your face excessively, but give it some time. Good luck.
