6 years after rhinoplasty, can I still have steroid injections to correct hard tip and swelling?

madi.798
I got my nose done 6 years ago for a deviated septum and cosmetic purposes. The tip of my nose is still very hard and swells regularly. I eventually want to get a revision because it's crooked but I'm looking to see other options first to reduce scar tissue. My first doctor was opposed to steroid injections and didn't do them. I don't know if doctors will do injections this late.
