What is wrong with my nose? How can it be fixed? (Photo)

December 4, 2023
Asked By:B.Julie in Kansas, USA

I had a rhinoplasty 6 months ago (deviated septum, dorsal hump, big droopy tip). Looked great straight after, but 2 months post op a supratip bump appeared. Since then everything has gone progressively worse. Got a microdose of cortisone at 4 months post op but did not help. The bump is rock hard and very protruding, there is an indented area above it (visble from sides) and the bridge is uneven. What could be wrong and how can it be fixed? Surgeon wants to do a revision at 9 months post op.
