Well I'm about 5 months post op. I'm pretty depressed about this bump. I wish something could be done sooner. I'm starting to get self conscious about my nose again and I hate it. My birthday is on the 17th an I don't even want my pictures taken bc you can see the bump from all Angle there is no hiding it. Not sure what else to do or how to hide it. Guess ill have to suck it up until march.

Revision

Well met with the doctor. Can't do anymore steroid shots because I am experiencing skin thinning. Well he has now decided that I will probably need a revision in march. He said my bump is becoming calcified so when it is done healing at the one year mark he will evaluate and go from there. He said it could still re-absorb back into the bridge but if not I will have a closed rhinoplasty revision. I'm somewhat upset but guess that's way it happens. I have been looking at other profiles and things and it seems to actually be somewhat common when the bridge is broken and put back to together. Or the rhinoplasty is drastic. Well ill add my pic from the last appointment.

Wow, sorry you're going to have to have a revision. It's just for the little bump though, right? Your nose looks perfect other than that one tiny little thing. Hopefully it will only be a quick little procedure. i should hope he's doing it for free too! Sorry you're going through this but you've been very strong hanging in there and being patient for all this time. Good luck and please keep us informed.

Ya it's free and just for the bump. It won't be nearly as bad as what the 1st one was or so I've been told

Ok things are getting better. Bump is going down on its own now. Still there but I can tell where it is reducing :) haven't had hardly any pain. My breathing is much better. As in I can actually breath threw my nose without opening my mouth for the first time in 12 years :) woot! I do still have a red spot from the front where the skin thinned from the steroid injections but its getting much better. Patience is key :)

Your nose looks perfect =) I have the same issue as you. I have a bump on my nose and I hate it. I'm thinking about getting my nose done. I love your results. Your nose looks natural

Hi, ur nose looks great. Just wondering, how is the swelling from the front? I also had a hump removed and bones broken so the swelling is really bad and makes my nose look really wide from the front (my nose was very narrow before).
