A lump formed on side of nose after rhinoplasty. Dr put steroid. Now it's indented & lump still exists. How to fix it?

Without actually seeing and feeling your nose in person, it is hard to say what the "lump" is. However, my guess is that it is cartilage that has been re-configured during your surgery. If steroid was injected to reduce what was felt to be scar tissue, it most likely just thinned out the area surrounding the "lump' and probably made it more obvious. It sounds as though you will probably need an exploration to correct the "lump", fill in the depression and improve the tip & supra tip areas. If you were just interested in improving the indentation without anything else, you might try having the doctor wash away the depot steroid with injections of saline. I have done this on several patients who have come to me after steroid injections and it usually takes about 3 or more at 1-2 week intervals.

Revision rhinoplasty for Pollybeak and dented tip etc. Based on my 46 years of Revision Rhinoplasty the above issues and others can be improved for a much more feminine and attractive nose. An evaluation is needed to feel and examine your nose. See a very experienced revision rhinoplasty surgeon who can show you dozens of natural results of his noses. Don’t rely on imaging!
