Please give me some advice. Very swollen infratip at 4 months post-surgery. Is it normal? Will it get better in time? (Photo)

I had a revision open rhinoplasty 4 months ago. The first surgery was closed. My infratip area is very asymmetric with a big difference between the area above and under the scar. No improvement with the passage of time. After surgery in the first 3 weeks things looked normal. What happened? Can it be fixed? My infratip looks cut in two and the scar is very visible at 4 months. The infratip is very hard and there seems to be a slight excess of skin. Last picture is at 2 weeks and everything was ok.
