Many people have numbness and tingling involving the tips of their noses after rhinoplasty, however, I'm not completely sure why this is occurring in your situation 1.5 years after surgery. Please consider visiting a reputable rhinoplasty specialist or an otolaryngologist for further evaluation. Thank you for your question. Sincerely, Dr. Joseph

Changes in the sensation of your nose one and a half years after rhinoplasty surgery is probably not something to be overly concerned about.
I think if you ignore it, it’ll probably take care of itself.
If you focus obsessively over it, then it will probably bother you more.
