I had a rhinoplasty outside the US about 6 months ago. I’m concerned with the fullness in my supra tip area. It feels firm at this point so I’m concerned that this is my final profile. I have a follow up scheduled with a US surgeon in two months, but in the meantime I’m trying not to completely panic. Does this look/seem like something kenalog could resolve, or should I prepare for needing a revision? Any advice would be appreciated. I’m having a really hard time.
