Revision rhinoplasty

It is too early for you to think about revsions for these issues. The nose is still changing and you won't know the proper amount to correct. Wait a year and then see if these issue bother you enough to have further surgery.

Tip pinching after rhinoplasty

There does seem to be some pinching of the tip in the photos you submitted. Your nose is still healing but how to proceed depends on whether the findings bother you enough to warrant revision surgery. I would wait at least a year before proceeding with anything in order to give your nose more time to heal and so you can see how things end up overall. The slope of your bridge could be addressed as well, but it's hard to comment on this without seeing a profile view of your nose... more

Rhinoplasty issue

While your are only 4 months out, the chances of improvement are slim.. It sounds like you have weakness of the alar and may need a graft to support it better. It is still early to have a revision but it is worth considering in the future if it bothers you.
