First Rhinoplasty: 10 months ago.Main concern: hump but brigde was narrowed, cartilage removed from tip and lifted. Had to go back in March as I developed a huge hump on the side where original hump was removed - nose looked crooked. After second surgery still a hump - it feels like cartilage and not happy with tip. Also have alot of scar tissue. Afraid to go back to original surgeon.

Seek out a revision specialist even if they are out of your area

For complex revision problems you may need to seek treatment from a revision expert who may be out of your geographical area. Don't be discouraged if one surgeon feels he or she cannot help you--there are a number of skilled revision experts throughout the U.S.
