Answer: Bump on Nose After Nose Job
The bump on the side of your nose is most likely a bone fragment or improperly realigned nasal bone. I would suggest following up with your surgeon for evaluation. I would not suggest revision for at least another four months. If it is a boney abnormality it should be a relatively easy revision. Good Luck

Answer: Bump on nose
It is too early to say what the bump is. It can be swelling, a collection of bone dust that may disappear or a slightly displaced bone that can also settle down with time. Any revision should not be considered for at least 6 more months.

Answer: What is This Bump on the Right Side of my Nose? (photo)
Could be blood,swelling or residual tissue (bone). Best to massage aggressively "if OK with your surgeon". Otherwise a revision at 6 months is indicated.

Answer: Postoperative nasal deformity after rhinoplasty
It is difficult to tell for sure, but it appears that you may have a step off between your nasal bones and upper lateral cartilage. There several possible reasons for this. You also look disproportionately larger in the lower third of your nose. This could certainly be swelling. You are only 2 months out from surgery and your nose will continue to evolve in shape and size over the next couple of years. Be patient, but discuss your concerns with your surgeon.

Answer: Dent 2 Months after Rhinoplasty
You should probably ask your plastic surgeon because photos and lighting can sometimes present a different picture than an actual exam. The area appears to represent bone that can be fractured inward to produce a nicer contour, but swelling may be factoring into this area at 2 months. Kenneth Hughes, MD Los Angeles, CA
