I had rhinoplasty 2 years ago. The biggest problem that i have had even before my rhinoplasty with my nose is that my nasofrontal angle is less then 120 degrees making me look like i am always angry. The rhinoplasty did not fix this problem however. I feel that the transition from my forehead to my radix is to steep making me look angry. I want to make the transition from my forehead to my radix smoother like the picture of the model. Is this possible?

It takes much longer for tissue oedema to subside specially in the Nasal tip area .In a revision case you may have to wait for up to 18 months to analyze the final result ,trying to any procedure at this stage may be counter productive
