"Scar Tissue Bump" is It Permanent or Will It Go Away? (photo)

I read your concern and reviewed your photos:

Your photo from 5/11 does not show this irregularity since you're still swollen 1 month post-rhinoplasty. Now that you're 10 months post-op, nearly all of the swelling in your bridge is gone, and we may be seeing an irregularity of your underlying cartilage or bone. You appear to have thin skin, so even small irregularities could be visible in your nose. I would not suggest more steroid injections as this can lead to further thinning of your skin.

You may benefit from a second opinion from a reputable rhinoplasty surgeon to confirm the cause of this bump, since it may not be "scar tissue".

I can't be certain without seeing you, but you appear to have an indentation below your "bump". A carefully placed Injectable Filler might help improve this appearance. My personal preference is to use Silikon-1000, an off-label filler for permanent results.

Hope this helps.

At ten months you are nearing the point where swelling has dissipated.  Most likely it is a small bump of bone or cartilage. This may require a simple procedure to shave it down inthe operating room.

Thanks for the photo. Doubt this is only scar tissue as you state. Looks as if there is residual bone or cartilage. You need in person examination.
