I got my nose done 10 months ago. From the start my nose swelling was crazy. After cast removal it looked like a pollybeak ( ill add pics for reference ) and it wasnt going down. I was able to get 2 steroids one around 3 months and another and 6 months. They worked so well for me Especially the one at 6 months but after that it started to bloat up / swell. He wont give me any more injections in fear of dents. Do I need a revision???
