Dents and deformed nose - 1 year on from rhinoplasty (photos)

January 23, 2023
Asked By:Solimar01 in England, United Kingdom

I had a rhinoplasty eaxctly a year ago to narrow my tip. I have thick skin, had a lot of swelling and was told it would take a year to see final results. Well, it's been a year now. After 4 rounds of Kenalog injections (6 weeks apart) to try and reduce swelling and a shot of Restylane to try and disguise the deformed columella, this is how it looks now. On top of everything else, I seem to have developed dents from the injections. Any advice very much appreciated. Thank you.

Please refer to my previous answer regarding nose narrowing and tip deprojection -- the tip deprojection will improve the nostril appearance as the skin re-drapes around the modified cartilage framework of the tip as it is deprojected. Essentially, the skin envelope contracts around the...
