Answer: Hump still present You have correctly mentioned that this can be due to swelling. In the area of a previous hump it is common to see residual swelling at time related to the skin and healing. You will need to give it several months for swelling to resolve. If there is a residual hump at that time then a minor revision can be performed. It is important to keep in close contact and follow up with your surgeon.

Answer: Bony Hump 16 days later Swelling after rhinoplasty is common. Not unlike a fracture of the wrist or other bone, nasal bone swelling occurs as well following removal of a hump. It can take several months for this to resolve. I suggest you check with your surgeon and see if he recommends taping at night. This will sometimes help improve swelling and ensure the contour or profile you desired
