If a Large Tip Does Not Go Down After 2 Rounds of Steroid Injections, Will It Ever Go Down? (Primary Rhino)

February 5, 2012
Asked By:eliza bethany in Miami, Florida

I am 11 weeks post op. The tip has not gone down at all. I have a bulbous tip, and it was not reduced. Should I get a revision with the same surgeon if It does not go down? Shouldn't the tip go down after two rounds of injections? at 6 weeks apart. thank you
