Bony callus on side of nose after trauma. How long to wait before considering my options to fix it? (Photos)

Thank you for your question i would recommend operation using the latest Ultrasonic Rhinoplasty device Piezo®:
In traditional Rhinoplasty, surgical instruments known as rasps and osteotomies (hammer and chisel) are used to reshape the nasal bones by removing the hump and/or narrowing the nasal bone width. These tools are relatively imprecise and their use can lead to contour irregularities, etc. if not used in the proper manner. Recently, a technology that uses sound waves has been developed to contour nasal bones in a precise and far less traumatic way when compared to traditional techniques. Ultrasonic, or Piezo, Rhinoplasty is now the most advanced technology available for minimally traumatic nasal bone reshaping and hump removal during Rhinoplasty. There will be hardly any bruising and swelling which will make the recovery period a lot easier for the patient.

It is difficult to predict whether this contour defect with resolve on its own with time. I recommend you wait at least 6 months to allow the body to heal and if it is still present at that time, schedule a consultation with a plastic surgeon. Best of luck.

Though 6 months is considered the "gold standard" following a nasal insult from trauma or surgery, if the nose seems to be stable and unchanging, I think it might be approached earlier. Hard to say what the exact treatment would entail without surgically inspecting the deformity. But, in any event, it does not seem very complicated!
