15 months post-op. Is this an open roof deformity? Can it be corrected with revision? (Photo)

September 27, 2023
Asked By:sarah295999 in Amman, Amman Governorate, Jordan

I had my rhinoplasty 15 months ago and my hump was removed. 2 weeks postop I noticed that I had swelling on my bridge from both sides,I talked to my surgeon at that time and he said that it was swelling and it would go away in 6 months.As the swelling of my nose subsided the bridge of my nose looked wider. How can I know if this is a complication from the surgery or if the surgeon simply didn't rasp it well enough?My surgeon refused to answer my questions. Any advice would be appreciated.

Hello! I'm not sure exactly what this is but it sounds to me like you have ischemia of your nasal tip, especially if you had thin skin before and had a revision to it, suggesting that the skin may have compromised blood flow. Lasers and LED can definitely help. If it is due to ischemia,...
