What is this Dent/Collapse of the supratip lobule 5 years after septoplasty? (photos)

October 12, 2017
Asked By:vilenas in Germany, DE

I had nosetip open surg. 5 years ago with local sedaction.Narrowed nose tip and upturned it a little bit (i believe with internal stiches).Now,within last year (5 years after), my supratip lobule formed a dent that makes my nose tip disconnected from my middle nose. Nosetip looks as over-projected in some degree. Is it possible my internal sutures didn't hold on left side?Tip rotated all of a sudden?Will this worsen?What's the problem you think and is it fixable (p.x. with new internal stiches)?
