Hi, I had a primary rhinoplasty in mid August 2023, so am now 9.5 months post op. When my cast came off I looked monstrous, extremely swollen and you could see up both nostrils completely. There has been minor improvement but I am still so very unhappy with my nose. From my perspective, my nostrils are notched, retracted, and my columella is hanging too low. I have been told I have thick skin and am a very slow healer. My question is,is there a chance that a revision surgery could help? Thanks!
