Uneven Swelling After Rhinoplasty, What is the Difference in Using Kenelog vs. Diprospan?

yenom
I am almost 2 months post op for an open rhinoplasty procedure. My nose looked great when I first came out of surgery but after the first few weeks it swelled up again. Two months later my nose no longer hurts I have been told I have thick skin and that steroid injections may be the answer in regards to scar tissue. What is the difference between Diprospan and Kenelog? I had my heart set on getting a kenelog injection but my surgeon says he only has diprospan. Is diprospan even a steroid?
