Solutions for Supratip Fullness After Rhinoplasty?

June 16, 2010
Asked By:Pluie in Europe

I had a primary rhinoplasty 2.5 years ago. Supratip fullness was visible immediately after the removal of the cast. Cortisone injections were not given. I was hoping that the deformity will recede with time but it never did. Are there any other solutions to this problem apart from secondary surgery?
