POST RHINOPLASTY: Persistent unilateral swelling/scar tissue OR problem with stitches?

March 23, 2015
Asked By:22222 in San Diego, CA

I had a rhinoplasty over 1 year ago but one side of my nose(the tip) is bigger than the other side. I know I have thick skin and it feels like congestion/inflammation, but its been so long since the surgery. Will kenalog injections help correct this or is it a problem with the stitches not holding?
