Based on your limited photo, you appear to have a wide nasal appearance and a visible piece of cartilage that is called a bossa. Depending upon your desires, revision rhinoplasty may be considered for a narrower and less pointy nasal appearance. Hope this helps! Dr Joseph
Hello! Thank you for your question.From the photo you provided it looks like cartilage. I recommend you to get it checked with your surgeon.Best regards!
Hi @jc_s! I assume that its cartilage from a columellar strut graft that was placed. I recommend contacting your surgeon for an in person examination. Best of luck, Dr. Nima!
It is not possible to tell for certain what the bump on the tip of your nose is, from the photo.It is probably cartilage, from a columellar strut graft, but it could be a bossa - the fold of the lower lateral cartilage at the dome.Your surgeon might be able to tell you what he/she thinks, since they know what sort of Rhinoplasty you had.
The bump appears to be the dome of your right lower lateral cartilage. That being said, you appear to have a saddle nose deformity - collapse of the middle 1/3 of your nose - which can occur from loss of cartilaginous septal support.See your rhinoplasty surgery for an evaluation.
Good Afternoon! The bump can be a number of different things. The most likely is a prominent portion of native cartilage or a graft. In individuals with thinner skin, any imperfection in the cartilage can show-through. If the area were softer, I would suggest compressions and usage of steroid injections. If the area is cartilage, it will need to be shaved-down. Hope this helps!

The indentation corresponds to your "Soft tissue triangle" which contains no cartilage. Since you have thin nasal skin, and indentation in this area in years after rhinoplasty can occur. If this is bothering you, The area may be permanently filled with a small droplet of Silikon-1000. Hope this...
Hello! Thank you for your question.It is not really recommended to take Bromelain (or Arnica) before rhinoplasty surgery. Because before the surgery you won't have any swelling, this will help only after the surgery if you have swelling. It is like taking a medication for a disease that you...
Since your surgery was longer than 2 years ago, it is unlikely that there is persistent surgical swelling. If your surgeon used a foreign body in your nose, even non-absorbable sutures, rarely this may lead to nasal swelling that persists. Since it's fluctuating, your nasal swelling at this...
That said, fluctuations in the swelling of your nose maybe due to salt intake from your diet, or related to your menstrual cycle. If your surgeon used non-absorbable sutures or another foreign body in your nose, that would be another reason for persistent and intermittent swelling. Hope this...
