Nose really wide after rhinoplasty (1 year post-op) - do I need a revision? (photos)

kiiwiiJul 26, 2022
I am now 1 year and 2 months post op. I noticed right after surgery, that my nose looks really wide.Of course I thought this was swelling and I tried to be patient.I take pictures of progress weekly but I can tell, that some major part of the swelling is gone. But still, it looks like a “boxer” nose, and it’s getting worse when I smile. I’ve never seen a nose like this. Do I need a revision?I don’t think time can change the wide of my nose. It seems like he forgot to bring the bones together.
