Is the lumpiness on the bridge of my nose excess swelling, scar tissue, or bone that wasn’t removed? 6 months post-op (Photo)

I am 6 months PO and as the swelling in my nose has reduced I’ve noticed inconsistencies in the bridge. My profile looks great; however head on and at a 45 degree angle shows a “divot” in the middle, a “ridge” that runs down to one side, and wide bones at the top. My doc initially said it was a beautiful nose and as good as it would get. After reviewing before and after photos and seeing my nose is now wider than before, he then said I probably needed more time to heal. Is this accurate?
