(26F) & overprojected tip 1.5 years post-op, is my nose swollen or is it going to stay like this? (Photos)

Nearly all of your swelling should be dissipated one and a half years after rhinoplasty surgery I do agree that you would have a less distracting nasal profile appearance if you tip for the projected and rotated additionally. Depending on your examination, revision rhinoplasty surgery may be considered for deprojecting and rotating your nasal tip for a less distracting and more feminine nasal profile appearance. Wishing you well moving forward. Sincerely, Dr. Joseph

Thank you for your query. The two photographs you have shared do show an “over-projected” tip. More photographs will be needed to evaluate. This can be corrected with a tip rhinoplasty if needed. Please see your rhinoplasty surgeon and have him/her examine you and help you with all your concerns. All the best!

Hi - it looks like your surgeon did a great job with the dorsum. I'm not sure what discussion you had regarding your desired outcome for the tip, but most likely at 2 yrs after a primary rhinoplasty you shouldn't have much swelling. I recommend going back to your surgeon to discuss your concerns and options. Your surgeon may also recommend getting a second opinion regarding what a revision surgery could achieve.
