I had Rhinoplasty a month ago, and there is still a bump, it's just not as prominent. It feels bony and pretty dense. I'm guessing my surgeon never got rid of it all. I did a bit of studying on this issue, and had read in some forums that this could be hard swelling. But when I say this is hard, I mean hard, like bone. I think my surgeon is lying and that he did a poor job at removing my nasal hump. Any opinions on this?

Answer: Wait till all swelling are resolved The final result of the of the rhinoplasty will be six months after the surgery . If you bonie bumps on the dorsum and not improving ,please let your original doctor to take care of it. We all take pride in our work and I am sure your doctor will do his best to fix the problem. Rhinoplasty is a difficult procedure and some times you will need revision.

Answer: Hump after rhinoplasty Sometimes there are some residual bumps along the nasal dorsum after a properly performed rhinoplasty. These could be due to swelling, the way the bone is healing or some soft tissue in the area. It is always best to wait several months after a rhinoplasty to allow for proper healing and let the tissues settle down. The majority of the time these disappear and nothing needs to be done. In the case that the bony hump wasn't completely removed then this can be filed down quite easily under some local anaesthesia by your surgeon. Good luck.
