Supratip swelling/scaring - Should I get Kenalog shots? (Photo)

Intuitive385487May 11, 2021
Hello! I got rhinoplasty 7 months ago and initially i had no supratip swelling but within the last 3 months, ive developed a hard bump on the supratip of my nose making it look likes its curving down. I was wondering if you think kenalog shots will help this go down?

Thank you for your questions and for sharing your photographs. It is completely understandable that one would be concerned about the appearance of his/her nose after a rhinoplasty surgery. It is however important to appreciate that it takes at least 12 months for the healing progress to complete...

I personally would recommend the nose first for one reason. When doing a rhinoplasty a breathing tube is placed and could possibly, although unlikely , break your veneers. It’s unlikely but it would be nice to avoid this possibility.

Accutane will effect the healing and scar development. It is recommended that elective surgery be avoided for 12 month after the completion of Accutane treatment.
