Still a hump after closed rhinoplasty, revision easy? (Photo)

December 5, 2015
Asked By:tessb in Eubank, KY

The first month I was happy with my hump reduction, my nose looked straight. Unfortunately when the swelling came down there was still a small bump! And becouse there's soft skin over the bump it stands out when I'm standing in direct sunlight. So I guess my doctor diddnt take enough of the hump away. Is a revision easy in my case? And if I wanted my tip to be a little smaller, would I have to do open rhinoplasty?
