Smile Permanently Affected After Rhinoplasty??

Asked By:John79 in bratislava

In my rhinoplasty 20 months ago, cartilage from my ear was added to the tip of my nose. My septum is hard when i touch it and my upper lip doesn't go all the way. When i smiled before the surgery my upper front teeth were revealed 100%, a month after-50%, and now 85% hasn't changed the last year. what can i do to make this piece of cartilage get a more soft texture and the lip to be "allowed" up again? My doctor is not willing to do anything about it, he is not a part of any future solution
