Bump on bridge 10 weeks after rhinoplasty
10 weeks is still soon after your surgery, and swelling will be a factor. Swelling can give the appearance of asymmetry and irregularities. In general, 70% of the swelling is resolved after the first 3 months, and the remainder goes down over time. The final result may not be evident for 18-24 months following your surgery.

10 Weeks after Rhinoplasty

Your nose still appears swollen 10 weeks after your rhinoplasty Surgery.
The indentation along your left bridge may improve as your swelling continues to resolve. If your tip is wider postoperatively, this too may be a result of persistent swelling.
If you're dissatisfied with the appearance of your nose in around 3 months, you could consult several reputable rhinoplasty surgeons to see what might be best for you.
Hope this helps you.

Swelling after rhinoplasty
The bump on your left bridge looks to be over the nasal bone. This can happen sometimes if the bone drifts laterally from swelling initially. I will sometimes have patients massage bones to keep them from pushing out. Also, you appear to have moderately thick tip skin that will certainly take a while to show definition.

Low Dorsum and Bulbous Tip
Hi,
At 10 weeks you still may have a little swelling. However, it looks like you had too much taken off the bridge and not enough tip work which lift you with a bulbous tip and flat dorsum.
Best,
