Nose still swollen 1.5 years after rhinoplasty. Will this go away on its own? (photos)

rose1268
My nose continues to grow after my rhinoplasty. I do have oily and thick skin, but I thought I would see more improvement with time. I have not seen improvement since the cast removal. I’ve noticed the tip gets bigger if I work out, but the swelling never goes down after. The tip is hard, could this be scar tissue? If so, is there any chance it will go away on its own? I have included pictures. Any advice would be helpful! Thanks in advance!
