1 month post op crooked and wide

Question

I am 1 month post-op and I don't know where it went so wrong. I trusted my doctor but now I'm freaking out. My bridge is wider than before surgery, it looks like it's completely going to one side, and there are hard bone-like bumps on the bridge.

sorry to hear about your concerns and your postoperative course. It's best to discuss your concerns with your operating plastic surgeon. You're still early in your healing process as final results will not be aparent for up to six months. If you're not satisfied, you can consider second opinion by having a thorough in person consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon in your area to discuss all of your treatment options. Best of luck!

You are one months out from surgery and you are likely pretty swollen. You have to give it time to heal and to settle.
