Is the Skin on my Nose to Thin

black30
hello about 2 years ago i had a rhinoplasty to remove a bump on the bridge of my nose , during the healing process a small hard lump apeared on my nose which was removed with a revision a year after, both these sergeries were closed. my skin now has white pressure marks where it feels like the skin is too tight against the cartilage of my nose. is there any way of telling if my nose skin has thinned? and if i want to have a revision to get rid of the white marks could my skin thin again?
