Still Swelling After Revision Rhinoplasty 14 Months Ago? (photo)

Asked By:Summer1234

I had a closed rhinoplasty May 2011 to straighten my nose & make the tip less bulbous. 9 months post-op I had a bossa on the L side of my tip. March 2012 (14 months ago) I had an open revision rhinoplasty to correct the bossa and a small bump on the L side of the bridge. Currently, the bossa is gone, but the L side tip is more bulbous than the R. Could it still just be swelling or could he just not get them symmetrical? My doctor has told me that I have thick skin, but does not elaborate.
