Bump on Side of Nose and no breathing improvement 1.5 years after septorhinoplasty. Should I consider a revision? (photos)

Resourceful542859
Hi, I had septorhinoplasty 1.5 years ago and there is a bump on one side of my nose that is quite noticeable. At first my surgeon said it was due to swelling so I received 4 cortisone shots every 4 weeks before the year was up, however, these did not help. It also looks like that one nostril is somewhat collapsed or “weak”. My breathing also did not improve by much. Would a revision be worth it? I’m not sure if another recovery and time off work would be worth it. Thank you for your help!
