Are the Problems with my Columella Going to Subside? Or Are Any of These Revisional Issues (photo)

October 14, 2013
Asked By:SunCityGirl7 in Sun City

I loved my nose before but due to an injury I sustained which left me with a hump and breathing issues. refinement for the bulblous tip, hump reduction and minimal rotation to offset the reduction in tip was recommended. Immediately after surgery I noticed a piece of skin was hanging unsutured. Dr acknowledged Columella has indentations on each side. it also looks like there's a step in the columella, top portion sits lower. Nse is pointing down almost hook like.
