Would really appreciate some help/advise. I had rhinoplasty 3 years ago for a smallish hump. I do have very thin skin in general and the swelling was significant I ended up having steroid injections but it only kept the swelling at bay for a little while. I am now 3 years post op and I am constantly waking up wondering what my nose will be like today. I find it its hot my nose will swell up! My nose before surgery didnt do this. Many thanks, chloe
3 yrs post op primary septorhinoplasty. From the moment my cast was off i knew something was wrong, but I waited 3 yrs anyway. The front view of my nose looks very strange. Ive actually never seen anything like it before. The photos of before and after below speak for themselves. There is an actual complete break in the cartilage of my right alar rim. Saw my surgeon last week for rasping and he says my nose looks good and my alars are just naturally uneven. Any advice?
I had a deformed nose after a car accident. Had a functional surgery and then a cosmetic surgery a year after. After the cosmetic surgery (3 years ago) I started experiencing mucus buildup and congestion in my left nostril. That side was particularly deformed and probably required more work. ENTs say they dont see a structural issue. I have to blow my nose 50 times a day. Rinsing with neti pot and flonase help to some extent.
Hello, I got rhinoplasty 3 years ago, I HAD the nose I wanted for a year. It did always fluctuate. Some days it looked SO SMALL! My nose is thick & oily. recently it has become extremely swollen during flares (salty food & heat). It just rests permanently at a swollen state. Taping fixes it temporarily. Why is this happening? How can I achieve my old results & latch the skin tighter on the revised cartilage? Are injections only temporary? what about accutane?I want to avoid revision
Hello, I had rhinoplasty 3 and a half years ago. There is excess scar tissue formation inside my nose. Since the right side of my nose is round and soft, I think there is scar tissue formation there as well. Is it useful to apply steroid injection? Even if I had a revision, I was hesitant because there was a possibility that it could reoccur.
I had the surgery done over 3 years ago, & ive been getting swollen/red for about 8 months now. Ive seen an allergist, my surgeon, & multiple dermatologists. Nobody knows what is going on. Exercising, heat, low humidity, high sodium meals all trigger it badly. It practically doubles in size & gets really red. What could this be? Only thing I havent tried was steroid injections & Isotretinoin. My derm thinks its morbihans disease. Its difficult to breathe during a trigger.
I had a septorhinoplasty 3 1/2 years ago. I had a rough go with lots of bruising, swelling, and pain. I have persistent pain on left side of my nose; sharp shooting pain starting at the top of my bridge and travelling down to my tip, and feelings of numbness in my tips. I have to take pain medication to alleviate some of the pain. My nose is now much wider and more bulbous than before the surgery. I have consulted revision experts but no one can figure out what happened. What could this be?
I got a rhinoplasty in2021. I loved my nose straight out the cast. I had edema in my radix but that resolved. As time went on, the bridge of my nose began to appear swollen, some days are better than others.When I press down on my nose, the skin is soft and moves according to my finger pressing on it. My Dr inTurkey recommended getting steroid injections of at least 3-4 mg. The doctor I went to in the US did not think it was swelling bc its Soft but my nose did improve. Pls lmk your thoughts!
I have Septo-rhinoplasty on march 2021 right after my nose looked very crooked, but i knew it was just the swelling, a year past and it definitely got better but it still looked slightly crooked, my doctor suggested steroids shots to help reduce the swelling i been having them here and there but now im 3 years post-op and my nose still looks slightly crooked and dont think the steroids shot are doing anything, if there anything else i can do?
