Hi! I just had rhinoplasty almost six months ago. My nose is much straighter and symmetrical up top but my tip is uneven and bolbous. My left nostril has had all the discharge, thick mucous and thin runny drainage, my right nostril has had barely any. The left nostril is swollen and has less shape, so I am concerned that the constant wiping has changed the shape of the tip. The tip is still round and shapeless. I thought I would have more definition.
