I had septorhinoplasty performed 1.5 year ago, but I still have this loose skin on both sides of the nose, in the same spots.b I have very thick skin and a lot of work was performed during surgery, but I’m worries this is not just skin shrinkage problem but maybe a side effect of surgery? I also have hard bonelike bumps on my bridge, I noticed them 2 month after surgery and they are still present, is it callus? Thank you for your time.

Answer: Septorhinoplasty It is not uncommon for patients to experience residual swelling and skin changes for up to two years following septorhinoplasty surgery. However, if you are concerned about the appearance of loose skin on the sides of your nose, it would be best to follow up with your surgeon for an evaluation. They will be able to assess the condition of your skin and determine if there is any underlying issue that needs to be addressed. Regarding the hard bumps on your bridge, they may be callus formation, which can occur during the healing process after surgery. However, again, it is important to have your surgeon examine them to determine their cause and whether any further intervention is necessary. In general, it is always a good idea to follow up with your surgeon if you have any concerns or questions about your recovery after surgery. They are the best resource for evaluating your condition and providing personalized recommendations for your specific situation. Best of luck !
