What Treatment is Available for a Bone Callus After a Nose Job?

May 17, 2012
Asked By:Henrique Vila in Vila Franca do Campo, Azores

I'm 18 and i had a closed rhinoplasty two months ago to correct my nose hump. In the top of the dorsum, in the left side, where the osteotomies were made appeared a little "hump" which my doctor told me it was a callus formation but to live with it because it was unnoticeable. I can notice it, and I am afraid it grows even more. Can a callus fade away by itself? Do I have any treatment possibility? Thanks
