Do I need a revision to improve my nose tip? (Photo)

July 25, 2023
Asked By:Rational9767

I had rhinoplasty 2 years ago. I wanted to de-project length and refine/upturn the tip slightly. The before (top) picture was just before the surgery in July 2021 and the after picture is today. I regret the procedure. The tip is still swollen & tender, even after 2 years & is droopier than before. I also still have a runny nose consistency throughout the day, a problem I never had before surgery. Would a cortisone shot still help with the swelling at this stage? Should I consider a revision?
