I had rhinoplasty 9 weeks ago to remove a small hump. The sides of the bulbous tip were 'thinned' slightly too. I thought my recovery was going great & at a 5 week review my surgeon signed me off; I was delighted. However the tip of my nose has become bright red. The tip is still numb, which I know is to be expected, but I'm worried this bright red may be permanent. Is this normal? How long should it last?
