June 8, 2017
Asked By:christyli in South Korea, KR

I am 8 days post Asian rhinoplasty and had my alar base reduced. I notice where it was cut and stitched together there is a lump. I think it's where it was cut bluntly and stitched the side flaps of my nose base inside abit more that has caused the lump or the dr accidently cut a lump and sewn it back in make a base. Is this normal to have lump and will it go away during recovery?
