2 weeks post op Rhinoplasty, I have a dorsal hump, callus, and swelling. Is this normal? (photos)

Asked By:Jessshef in Chantilly, VA

I had rhinoplasty about 2 weeks ago to remove a bump off my bridge and give it more of a smooth flowing look to it, as well as tip refinement. I know my nose is still very swollen and the results aren't near finalized but I am beginning to notice and feel a hump on my nose. Is it a callus? If so, does it go down on it's own in most cases? I'm just so nervous, I paid so much money for my dream nose and now a bump has formed and I feel my new nose is not what it's all cracked up to be.
