6 mo. post septorhinoplasty revision nose lacks definition and appears lumpy / uneven - could this be due to swelling? (photos)

Question

I had a complex septo-rhinoplasty revision using ear grafts 6 months ago. Currently my nose is uneven, lumpy, and lacks any tip definition. I have thick skin i was told. Is this swelling? Is there hope this result will improve much?

Eric M. Joseph, MD · Answer

Based on your photos, your skin on your nose appears to be shiny, and there is a bit of a c-shaped appearance. And your nasal appearance is a bit wide from top to bottom. I do not believe that you are looking at a final result, and your nose simply looks swollen. If you still have concerns about the appearance of your nose over the next 4 to 6 months, please consider re-asking your question with additional photos. I hope this is helpful. Sincerely, Dr Joseph
