Bossa on nose tip. What can be done to fix it? (Photo)

March 1, 2024
Asked By:ballinaire in Pohjois-Pohjanmaa, Finland

Hi! I had my 1st tip plasty a year ago and started noticing this bump (believe it's a bossa) on my nose tip a couple of months ago. It's not until now it's really bothering me. I have very thin skin and even before surgery my cartilage was a bit visible. What can be done to fix it? I really want to avoid a revision. Could microneedling help thicken the skin and camouflage it? What would happen if I microneedle over the cartilage? Could it improve it ? Thank you
