Hello! I had a primary preservation rhinoplasty in May 2023. Pretty soon after, I had spring back of my bridge (confirmed by surgeron) that continued to get worse. My surgeon said this could be corrected with in office rasping, with local anesthesia. I am 5 weeks out from the procedure and worried because my nose looks worse. The bridge appears flatter and wider, the hump is still there, and now it looks crooked. Will I need a revision? Can I still get my expected results? Thank you!
