Cartilage bump on side of nose after 3rd rhinoplasty - what can be done? (photos)

Hi there! It depends on what the bump consists of. If it's cartilage, a shave in-office can help, but if too large, it may not be enough. If there is scar tissue, steroid injections, compressions, and taping may lead to improvement. If no benefit is seen, a revision may be need to ensure there isn't a graft or bone which is out of place and needs manipulation and suturing. In my opinion, open revision rhinoplasty allows for the most precision and ability to improve deformities such as this. Hope this helps.
