Hello and thank you for your question. The photograph you have supplied only shows a limited view of the nasal structure. I would recommend sending in additional photos or, if you are able to, attend a consultation with a board certified facial plastic surgeon who will be able to discuss options for management of any concerns you have.

Caner Kacmaz, MD · Answer

A nasal bump is a normal part of recovery. This swelling usually lessens as the healing tissues settle. But if a bump does not go away, it might require further evaluation. In your case its been 7 years since your surgery and I would recommend you to see your surgeon for further evaluation to decide if revision surgery would be beneficial for you. Good luck

Even though you had a rhinoplasty, it was unsuccessful.  You will need a repeat rhinoplasty to correct the dorsal hump.

Best Wishes,

Based on your limited photo, the persistent bump appears to be high on the bridge of your nose, and this is in all likelihood bone. If that is the case, revision rhinoplasty surgery may be considered for bridge lowering and nasal straightening. Please consider bringing this to the concern of your surgeon, or to another reputable rhinoplasty specialist for an evaluation. I hope this is helpful. Sincerely, Dr Joseph

Your photo shows very limited information but your nose does still have a bump and is long.. it may benefit from a revision to be made a bit smaller
