Hi, I had a rhinoplasty done in Colombia 6 months ago to slim the bridge of my nose. As of now I am not happy with my results. My nose was shorten and to upturn. My nostrils are so exposed. Nothing was done to the bridge. I went to a couple of doctors in my area. Some said to wait 12 months and some said they can do it now. What would go wrong if I go through the revision surgery after 6 months? My nose feels normal and physically I have no swelling.
