Bump side of nose - do you think it will settle down or has too much time passed? (Photo)

September 28, 2023
Asked By:nicolier

It's been 9 months since my rhinoplasty and I have had a bump on the side of my nose which I noticed 2 months post op and was advised to wait and see how it goes. I had my surgery overseas so based on photos my surgeon said he thinks it could be the lateral end of her tip cartilage buckling. Do you think it will settle down or has too much time passed? Is it also normal that my nose seems to thin (with the defined lines) and then stops- is this still swelling between my eyes? Thank you
