Bump Under Rhinoplasty Skin Graft. Do I Need a Revision?

rnp
A Graft from my Scalp Was Laid over my Nose After the Rhinoplasty.  A Section over my Bridge is Bumpy and Has Not Resorbed. The bump over my bridge is visible, and I can feel the edges of the graft with my fingers. I can shift the graft from side to side. The bump was prominent at 1 week post surgery. The surgeon used the needle method to break up the bump at 5 months post surgery. It has been 11 months since surgery, and the bump is still prominent. Do I need a revision?
