Can Increase in Oil Production Cause Nose to Appear Larger?

When ambient temperatures increase, the rate of sebum (skin oil) excretion increases. This increased output of sebum causes the pores to dilate and, therefore, be more visible at the surface of the skin. However, it is doubtful that this factor would cause a change in the overall appearance of your nose/tip.

Given that it's been a year since your surgery and, thus, your final results are now visible, I suggest seeing your surgeon if you're at all unhappy with the appearance of your nose.

Good luck!

After a year, you result will be quite stable, for better or worse. Changes in oily skin should respond to an astringent and will not change the shape of your nose.

For sure if the glands on the nose are hyperactive the skin will be thicker and the nose will look bigger. A great way to treat this is to use a CO2 laser to smoothen the skin. If your glands really are hyperactive, you might even consider doing this once every 1-2 years or as necessary. Longterm that would reduce the risk of rhinophyma where the inflamed tissue on the nose really thickens and deforms. Louis Potyondy
