14 weeks post revision rhinoplasty and nose is really wide, is this just swelling? (Photos)

September 25, 2017

I had revision rhinoplasty 14 weeks ago. The bridge of my nose is still very wide and uneven. The purpose of the surgery was to rasp down the nasal bones on each side of my nose to make it slimmer due to lots of scar tissue build up I developed after the first surgery. Is this just swelling? If so, how long will it take to go down? Also, my nose always goes very purple when it's cold as it's still numb. How long will that last too? Thank you so much.
