Rhinoplasty failure… but why & what now? My nose looks the same as before (Photos)

CocoFlanel
My rhinoplasty is a failure. It's been a year, nose looks the same as before. I wanted the tip reduced (refined) and upturned. It looked amazing a few days after surgery. I followed all post-op instructions and was seen every month by the surgeon - whom I made aware of these concerns at month 5+6. I was told more time was needed, put on oral steroids and instructed to tape my nose again. Please, help me, what went wrong? What now? Blessings to all and thank you.
