Bump appeared on the bridge of my nose 8 months after rhinoplasty I got my nose done 8 months ago and newelg 2 weeks ago a bump on the bridge of my most appeared, it's hard and it seems to not be getting smaller. I'm really worried and I want to know if this means I would need another surgery or if its common and it'll go away on it's own. It appeared out of no where couple hours after waking up on day, if its something that's common what should I do to fix it?

Answer: It doesn't seem to go away on its own Looking at the photo, I can see the bump on the side edge of nasal bone. This is unlikely to go away on its own and can be corrected with revision surgery. In addition, sinking was observed on the Rt side of upper lateral cartilage region, just below the caudal margin of Rt. nasal bone. This is called inverted V-deformity. This also seems to require spreader graft using cartilage to move out sunken structure.

Answer: 8 months post rhinoplasty, bump appeared on nose bridge - will I need a revision or should this go away on its own? In general, if a bump appears many months after rhinoplasty, it's due to swelling resolution. In that regard, many small nasal bumps may be permanently camouflaged with microdroplet Silikon1000, a permanent soft tissue filler. An examination would be necessary to determine your candidacy. Hope this helps! Dr Joseph

Answer: Bump on the bridge after Rhinoplasty Unfortunately bumps on the bridge of the nose after rhinoplasty is not uncommon. This can occur after the swelling goes down. Right after the rhinoplasty surgery, there will be enough swelling in the skin to miss a bump, especially if it is smaller. Your situation might be due to a cartilage reaction or something we call a bony callus. You should definitely contact your surgeon. He might offer to fix the problem with a simple file or a small revision surgery. Good luck with everything.
