9 months post op and swelling / numbness is still present - would a kenacort steroid injection help? (photos)

Steroid injections can be warranted to help with scar tissue formation in the nasal tip after rhinoplasty. However, that doesn't fully explain your lack of ability to breathe properly 9 months after surgery.

I'd recommend that you set up a consultation with a rhinoplasty surgeon in your area and let them guide you with their expertise as to the right course of action. I would not recommend calling around to offices asking for someone to give you a steroid injection to your nose. Let the surgeon make the decision to do this, if it's warranted and in their best medical opinion to do so. Your situation may not be that simple, and the Turkish surgeon can only make a guess as to this intervention through a telehealth visit.

Hello! Thank you for your question.As I can see from your photos you still have swelling, but I have also noticed that you have thick skin especially on the tip of the nose. Even if the swelling goes down totally, your tip will still be round. Best regards!

The only place that we may inject steroids is the supratip. when it appears swollen. You are supratip appears normal on profile. Consider visiting a local surgeon who specializes in rhinoplasty surgery for an opinion about your nose. It may also be helpful if you could procure your operative report. Hope this helps. Dr Joseph
