9 months post op - can drooping and dents be a result of swelling? (photos)

gracearya
I’ve had a deep dent on one nostril for several months now (currently 9months post op). I thought the other side was just swollen but it hasn’t gone down and even the swollen side looks better. The dent is more obvious under a light where it creates an obvious shadow. Also, tip is looking slightly droopy and pointy…. Is that just swelling? Looks different than the few months post op.
