Is a bump on the nose bridge unattractive for females?

P
prombom17Apr 21, 2014

I have a bump on the bridge of my nose and I really hate it. But idk if I'm just making it out to be worse than it is. Is any small convexity really distracting to the facial attractiveness of a female? I can't post a picture for safety reasons, but do all females look better with a slightly curved/straight bridge instead of one with a nasal hump?

I agree that it's a bit too early to see the final results, however, the current deviation you are experiencing may be an indicator of where the nose is going. Speak to your surgeon about it and obtain 3 month, 6 month, and 1 year followup with him or another surgeon who is a certified...

Your photos show that your nose is quite crooked, which could be the result of an old injury.  Correcting this will indeed require a formal rhinoplasty and your ones need to be re- broken. It sound like there may be some other issues on the inside of your nose causing your other symptoms....

Is clear, watery discharge normal 2 days post-op after a septoplasty?

Having nasal drainage after surgery is to be expected. If you have any kind of packing or splints inside your nose, your body will actually increase the amount of nasal secretions in attempt to help flush them out. A CSF (cerebrospinal fluid) leak would be very rare after a septorhinoplasty but...

Pulled a stitch out 2 weeks after closed rhinoplasty and it bled a little. Have I done any damage to my nose?

In most cases there are incisions placed just inside the nose for rhinoplasty and sutures to close these. If you accidentally removed a suture 2 weeks after surgery, it is unlikely that you damaged anything deep such as the cartilage. The skin incisions heal very quickly after rhinoplasty....
