Hi, I am a male patient who underwent a rhinoplasty 7 months ago for a deviated septum as well as cosmetic. The goal was to narrow the bridge. 7 months in and my nose looks extremely feminine and narrowed. I feel like the lower half of my nose was not preserved and my nose does not belong on my face. I understand I can still be dealing with swelling, but my nose looks off. Would a revision help?
