Hate side profile after rhinoplasty - is revision surgery the only way forward? (Photos)

Asked By:jenince101

I hate my side profile now post-rhinoplasty (May 2021). After consistently emailing about myconcerns he agreed to give me a steroid injection and insisted this would make all the difference but I need to wait around 6 - 9 months between each steroid injections. 2 steroid injections down and it’s had 0 impact on my nose tip. I still feel like one side is still really swollen. Will steroids actually work? Or is revision rhinoplasty the thing that will work?
