I had a really large hump removed from my nose, and the skin around my nose is no longer as tight as it used to be. What can I do to tighten it? My skin type if fairly thin.

Answer: Length of time since surgery? I have never seen skin not tighten enough after Rhinoplasty if given the appropriate year or two. It is possible that you have very thick skin and this might result in a longer post-op course. In the area above the tip it may help to inject steroids as well.

Answer: Nasal skin tightening after rhinoplasty The nasal skin will naturally tighten over time. It will take a year or longer, depending on how much cartilage & bone was reshaped. Thicker skin will take longer than thinner skin to tighten. Sometime a small dose of steroid injected directly onto the top of the nose may help swelling & skin tightening. Gentle massage may help a bit too.
