What happened to my nose?! 5 months post rhinoplasty, is this hump normal? (photos)

Asked By:nosey.14 in Los Angeles, CA

I had rhino 5 months ago and initially loved the results but after 3 weeks I developed a large hump, which went down a lot after a week but has now stayed put. It is hard like bone and doesn't hurt. There is no asymmetry from the front but the profile is awful, it looks like a bird beak. I understand I have to wait the standard 12 months for revision but do these types of bumps ever go away on their own? I'll need to budget for a revision if I need one and I'll be finding a new surgeon too.
