Do I have a failed revision rhinoplasty/septoplasty? (Photo)

Question

I had this done November 2022. The bumps started showing up 4 months after. The tip has also dropped a little and is leaning a to the side a little. My septum is still deviated upon xray. But he made big improvements. He thinks he can shave the bumps down a little in office. However I've heard I have an open roof, saddle on this website. In need of opinion of someone with loads of experience in this. Pics from when cast came off till now. I circled where I can feel a small gap in the bone.

In general, shaving small irregularities off the bridge of the nose like you have, is not performed in the office. In our experience, this may require general anesthetic and exposing the entire skeleton of your nose to deal with the problem. Sometimes, we use microdroplet Silikon-1000 to camouflage smaller regularities and patients within skin. Your candidacy for this would always require an examination. I hope this is helpful!

It’s a little difficult to understand what your concerns are based on your post. Considering you’ve had multiple procedures your situation is a bit complex. Septoplasty is going to be limited to how much of the septum can be addressed through a septoplasty. The skeletal part of the septum cannot be Corrected by a simple septoplasty.
I suggest you follow up with your provider and have him or her address your concerns. If you need a second opinion consultation, then schedule, those is in person consultations bringing with you a complete set of proper before and after pictures and copies of your previous operative reports.
Best,
