Nose tip red scarring and leakage - what can I do?

I agree that you should continue to rinse your nose with saline. It’s too early to do any other sort of revision. If the drainage continues after a year have it re-examined

Hello! Thank you for your question. As far as I can understand from your question 6 months are early to decide anything about a revision. Also the healing process is due to your skin type. If you had thick skin it can be up to 1,5 years. If you can provide photos from front of your face, from the side of your face and 1 meter away I would be able to make a proper evaluation. It would be more convenient to decide with face-to-face consultation. Best Regards!

I'm sorry to hear about your experience after your septorhinoplasty and revision rhinoplasty. It's understandable that you're not happy with the persistent symptoms and the appearance of your nose.

Based on the symptoms you described, it's possible that you may have an infection or inflammation in your nasal passages or the skin of your nose. It's important to have a thorough evaluation by a qualified medical professional to determine the underlying cause of your symptoms and develop an appropriate treatment plan.

Since your original surgeon has retired, you may want to consider seeking a consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon or an ENT specialist who has experience with complex revision rhinoplasty cases. They can evaluate your nose and provide a second opinion on the best course of action.

In the meantime, it's essential to follow good nasal hygiene practices, such as washing out your nose with saline solution and avoiding blowing your nose forcefully. You may also want to avoid touching or rubbing your nose and using any harsh chemicals or products on it.

It's important to prioritize your health and wellbeing and not ignore persistent symptoms. Seeking a consultation with a qualified medical professional who can provide a thorough evaluation and develop an appropriate treatment plan is crucial in addressing your concerns.

Best of luck !

I would keep seeking expert advise until you find an answer that is reasonable and consistent with your feelings/experience/symptoms.
