Bridge of nose larger 3 years post rhinoplasty (Photo)

Genius2330May 21, 2024
I got my rhinoplasty back in 2021 to remove a small bump on the side of my nose. The rhinoplasty was closed with the only thing being fixed the small bump on my nose. 1 year post op my surgeon went back into my nose in office to rasp down a small callous that popped up during recovery. It has been over 3 years now since my surgery and I feel that looking straight on at my nose it has progressively gotten wider? Possibly swollen. My surgeon has agreed with me and believe it may be calluses?

Without photographs, it is impossible to give you guidance on your question. In general, nasal obstruction after previous rhinoplasty surgery can be multifactorial. Wishing you well moving forward. Sincerely, Dr Joseph
