I've had three closed rhinoplastys by the same surgeon. Is the bump scar tissue or just an extremely botched rhinoplasty? Are my nostrils uneven because something collapsed? How does this happen?

Answer: Bump on nose and asymmetric nostrils after three rhinoplasties.
Yes, your nasal tip looks appropriately swollen for this far out of surgery. I usually will start steroid injections to the tip and or supratip region at 8 to 10 days to push along the resolution of swelling and more importantly to help prevent scarring in these regions that can accentuate...
The hanging columella can be removed under local anesthesia It is a minor in office procedure. Return to your surgeon and explain your desire to him and if you are not satisfied seek a second opinion from a very experienced revision rhinoplasty surgeon.
