My nose tip is too flat after rhinoplasty, and it has no projection. Will it change? (Photo)

October 5, 2015
Asked By:Seattlesoulxo in Seattle, WA

I am 6 weeks post op and truly feel discouraged with my results. I feel like my whole nose has been chopped off and my tip is non-existent. Is it possible for the nose to gain MORE projection as swelling subsides or should I come to terms with the fact that I've had a botched nose job?
