Can scar tissue form in the nose after 2 years post rhinoplasty?

It is possible that thick skin can form scar tissue several years after Rhinoplasty. The use of Kenalog-10 / methylprednisolone is helpful to reduce scar tissue, but has it's limits. We typically will inject the nasal tip in thick skinned patients as early as 3 months post -op to get ahead of this problem. Dr. Gross

Hello @Eliza bethany thank you for your question. Is important to review what type of process is being treated. What the patient wants achieved and if there is the possibility of a permanent and surgical solution. It would be important to make an in-person appointment to define if an MRI is required to define the surgical plan. To obtain more information and recommendations, it is best to consult one or more board-certified plastic surgeons. Best wishes! Alan Gonzalez MD, FACS.
