Left side of nose caved in, is there a way to correct failed rhinoplasty? (Photos)

Question

The left side of my nose did not have enough support and caved in. In 2016 a doctor took a part of my septum and placed it along the left side of my nose in order to give it more support but the result was not as expected. Not only did the left side not match the right side, after the treatment there also developed some kind of round swelling which has stayed ever since. Is there a way to fix this?

We can see in your photos that you have sebaceous nasal tip skin, and a flat left nasal tip appearance with a bulge and an indentation. You also appear to have nostril retraction on your left side as well. Depending on your examination, microdroplet Silikon-1000 injections may be considered for adding volume to the left side of your nasal tip and to your left nostril margin for creating a more symmetrical and less distracting nasal tip appearance. An examination would be necessary to determine your candidacy for this. I hope this helps. Sincerely, Dr Joseph

Hello! Thank you for your questions.As far as I can understand from the photos the bump might be a dislocated cartilage or anything like that so face to face consultation is more suitable for your case. Best Regards!
