I had Rhinoplasty 8 months ago, having the dorsal bump removed. After the swelling went down, I noticed a small areas where the bump was still there , mainlyon the right dise and some in the front.After waiting 6 months my doc rasped these areas down in the office. It has been 4 weeks since he did and what was a minor bump before has returned to almost the size of the bump prior to any surgery. It is not swelling because it is very hard like bone and still looks the same after taping it. Help!
