Nose bridge (sides) are too wide 10 months post rhinoplasty. Is this swelling? (photo)

Hi,
Knowing that you are still in healing process so you need to complete your healing period
then if your have still the same problem need to have a detailed examination,
then if required Revision Rhinoplasty can help you to fix
Kind Regards,

Thanks for the question. While there is still some swelling at 10 months after surgery (especially in thicker skinned patients), unfortunately it seems you may need a revision rhinoplasty. You have an inverted-V deformity, in which the cartilage part of the bridge has narrowed significantly, relative to the bony portion. This can be corrected by narrowing the nasal bones with osteotomies and supporting the mid-bridge with spreader grafts. This would likely improve your breathing and may be partially covered by insurance. If desired, you could probably achieve a more refined tip as well. Bring up your concerns with your surgeon, but you may want to also visit with a couple of revision rhinoplasty specialists, to determine the best course of action. Kind regards,Dr. Mehta 

I have not examined you, but the photograph you have supplied is suggestive of open roof deformity.  That means a hump was removed but the nasal bones were not closed to fill the gap this created.  Discuss this with your surgeon and ask for a second opinion if you are not satisfied. You should be able to have this readily corrected.

Hi,
In your photo it does appear like the nasal bones are more prominent then the width of the middle 1/3 of your nose.  In general it takes 3 months for the top 1/3 swelling to resolve, 6months for the middle 1/3 and 1 year for the tip.  What you are noticing is probably not swelling at this point, 10 months after surgery.  The correction would be to narrow the bones in so the width matched the middle 1/3.
Best,
Dr. Tanya Judge

Thank you for sharing your concerns
at 10 months it is unlikely to be swelling.
it is more the cartilage part is too narrow 
Sincerely

Most if not all of the swelling in the nasal bridge is usually resolved 10 months after a rhinoplasty. This one picture suggests that you have an Inverted-V deformity which is corrected by changing nasal bone position and adding cartilage grafts in the mid-nose. I suggest you discuss this with your surgeon or a revision rhinoplasty specialist.
