I had primary rhinoplasty 6 weeks ago (I know, recent) for a long, overprotected nose. My areas of concern was the 3/4 view and top as well as top 3/4 view more even than my profile. I *never* had a bump or hump at least that was ever visible. About a week after cast removal (9 days) I noticed a swollen bump on the bridge of my nose. The bridge and tip are wider. He told me 80% swelling is down by 6 weeks. I know it’s a full year. But I’m SO WORRIED.bump feels hard. The 3/4 view is :(

I would recommend a rhinoplasty to lengthen your nose, smooth out your dorsal aesthetic lines, and even out your tip and nostrils. You may not have sufficient septal cartilage if it was previously harvested so ear cartilage or cartilage allograft may be needed.
Good Afternoon! Microfat can be useful to improve skin texture and some augmentation of minor irregularities. It can be powerful when added to temporalis fascia which acts as a reservoir and blanket to cover the areas. Microfat harvest and injections can be done in the office. The risks are low...
A revision may be needed to give you a more aesthetic result. I would recommend further dorsal reduction to improve your dorsal aesthetic lines and get you a nice supratip break, I would also recommend alar grafts to consolidate the tip.
