Small hard ball/lump on right side tip of nose 2 years post-op (photo)

The circled area in your photograph is called a nasal bossa. This is an area of cartilage that looks white, and is poking through your relatively thin nasal tip skin. Microdroplet Silikon-1000 injections maybe a welcome alternative to revision rhinoplasty surgery to correct issues like this, depending on your examination. I hope this helps! Sincerely, Dr Joseph

Hello and thank you for your question. Based on your photograph, a revision rhinoplasty will benefit you. Maneuvers for your surgery would include nasal tip deprojection followed by placement of a mastoid fascia tip graft to give a smoother long-term tip contour. With good surgical technique, you could have an outstanding result. I recommend that you seek consultation with a qualified board-certified rhinoplasty surgeon who can evaluate you in person.

Best wishes and good luck.
