Asked By:Stereochemistry in New York, New York

I had a closed septorhinoplasty in 2018, in which mostly only the bridge was aesthetically amended, however the septum unfortunately was not fully fixed. Then in spring 2023, I had an OPEN septorhinoplasty to fix the septum, smoooth out a dorsal jump that was left over from primary surgery and fix a hanging columealla. my existing septal reserve cartilage was used so no rib graft or ear graft was used. I am now 6 months and notice my swelling beneath the keystone area of nose stagnating
