Is my nose collapsing 2 years after rhinoplasty?

March 31, 2016
Asked By:kb144 in London, GB

I had rhinoplasty 2 years ago when I was 18 but I've noticed the bone of the bridge growing over the last 10 months or so in a way that has made my nose asymmetrical and my gp said she noticed that I've got some buckled cartilage. Will it continue to deteriorate and is there a possibility my nose could collapse?
