Normally I keep my bedroom door closed at night, but my dog nudged it open tonight. When I got up to use the restroom, instead of opening my door I ran head first into the edge. There was a popping sound, and it is bruised and swollen along the bridge. There was no blood, but it is sensitive to the touch and i now have a headache. I apologize for the picture quality; that was the best I could do at 4am.

Dear Amy,
Thank you for your post. Most likely this is not concerning. At 6 weeks, best to remove the suture, but not urgent. Follow up with your plastic surgeon for removal. Also, stop wiping your nose so much!

I do not think you are over analyzing it. You see things you do not like and are justifiably looking for answers and an accurate description of the situation. Your posted photos show a cloverleaf shaped asymmetric tip that is projected too far forward out of the plane of your face. You perceive...
Fullness can be restored to your tip using cartilage and/or fascia. If done by an experienced revision rhinoplasty surgeon the tip contour can made stronger and well defined without adding too much bulk.
