Cartilage poking columellar 5 years post op - will I need a revision? (Photos)

January 31, 2025
Asked By:highwaywoman in Virginia Beach, Virginia

Had a great rhinoplasty (within realistic expectations) with slight discoloration on the bridge which I am okay with but the last few months I’ve noticed a poking feeling cartilage peice under my nose. What could it be? What could have happened? I haven’t hit my nose super hard in the past 5 years, just the typical baby head butts. But no bleeding. Is there a revision in my future? Did something pop loose? Uhg. Stressed out. Any advice or theoretical situations will help me. Just trying to think
