Hump is Reappearing

My surgeon told me its safe after 6 months, lot's of people have advised the same as you and to be honest I am not in a rush to have the revision, just knowing I can is fine for now and I will allow myself to heal some more.

That's great. Please update us.

Oh cici I'm sorry to hear that :( I know exactly how you feel!! It seems to be quite common the small bump after hump removal, although I was never aware of it before finding this website! My nose is improved just like yours but I also don't feel that it's changed as it's not the side profile I wanted, I've massaged the hump twice daily but it hasn't improved :( that's why I will take the revision otherwise what was the point I want to be 100% happy, I'm dreading it though, now I know what to expect!! Stay positive :)

How long have you had yours done now? Im looking at mine 24hrs a day i hope i didn make it worse cause i kept pressing on it to see if it felt like swelling or bone ... im hoping it goes away when serllimg goes im 10 days post now so it probly wont im just worried it will get bigger thats my fear ... did yours go down at all .. i no i no what you mean my sister and friends are telling me how much better it looks but im like its not prefect i paid for prefect ;(

My surgery was 16th Dec so 2 months post op, I did the same for the first 6 wks I was obsessed but I promise you, you do start to accept your new nose & realising how much it has improved even though it's not perfect...I don't think pressing it would of made it worse I kept thinking things I did might of made it worse but it is what it is, I'll be honest with you everyone kept telling me it's swelling but I knew deep down the bump wasn't going to disappear sorry to be the bearer of bad news but I wish someone had been straight up with me! Even tho mine is 85% I want perfect too, have you spoken to your surgeon?

Yh i dn think mine is i can feel a tiny little lump like a tiny ball on my bridge thats whTs causing the bump i duno what it is ... yh he said if it doesn go dwn he can do a minor op to fix it after 6 momths and that hel do what he can until im happy so thats good :) are you goin to do revision

That's good news then, has he offered to do it for free? My original operation was closed surgery & he confirmed that it will closed surgery again which is good as I believe open surgery is worse, what did you have? Yes I have decided that I am going to have the revision!!

yes mine was closed too i didn want open:O ... how is your nose looking is it any better now how long are you post op? .. my bump if i rub it for a few seconds it goes away so fingers crossed its just something that will go away al together if not i too will go for revision as its free and after paying money for the the perfect nose i want it !!!!!im becoming obsessed with mine touching it takin pics of it 24/7 its horrible :(

Thank you, I might be able to find an old pic i'll have a look! but yes generally I avoided at all costs!!! Thank you for your nice comment :) I know that my nose is better than before but psychologically I feel like it is exactly the same as before it's so frustrating!! I'll check out the link!

Thank you! Fingers crossed it is swelling I am going to get in touch with him as soon as he is back!! Of course i'll update you.

Thank you Sammy, I have just read your journey so sorry to hear you had quite a bad experience!! I was really lucky the whole process was pain free don't get me wrong it was awful night 1 and the drippy nose was horrid and the cast uncomfortable but I had a fast recovery it's just the disappointment of the end result I am really trying to be positive and putting it down to swelling but I keep thinking did I do something wrong maybe not eat the right things or went out to soon etc I keep looking in the mirror and obsessing it's driving me mad!! Where the bump is it feels like there is a lot of pressure there and sometimes tingly?? what does that mean?? I have read so many reviews and it is worrying that this is a problem for so many and that it can last for months too!!! What has your surgeon said, why has your hump not been removed completely? I am sorry that you didn't get the result that you hoped for especially after what we went through to achieve it!! I've read that you can have callouses injected to make them go down but of course I will be patient first and hope for the best. I will keep you posted :)

On my cast removal the cast would just not come off and my nose actually cracked numerous times as he tried to remove it so hes unsure whether that may have caused a fracture to move the bones at the moment but im due to see him next week so he can assess it now that my nose is less tender to touch but ill ask him about what can be done with a callous, if you feel pressure i would say its swelling - apparently its a part of the healing process to have excess swelling where the bump was removed especially if your surgeon "rasped" your nose. I completely understand how your feeling and how disapointing it is regardless of whether its swelling or not! You always expect to see a perfect little nose after rhinoplasty :( either way for me its still an improvement i guess ..aha ill tell you what my surgeon says when i see him hopefully we'll both have the results we want in the end!

Hi Sammy! Can't believe it's been 2 yrs!! Unfortunately my bumps got worse &
I have now finally made the decision to have the revision surgery, I'm so
Nervous more than last I think!! Did you go through with it in the end??

Hi Sammy, mine too! He has offered to carry it out in 3/4 months time free of charge. I am in two minds whether to go ahead or not, how about you?

So its booked for so soon? Everyone on this site seem to say its best to wait a full year bt my surgeon wants to do it at 6 months. Im in two minds too, i feel like im more worried that itl end up worse but iv developed afew more issues since i last seen him so i think regardless of what i want its probably best to get it sorted

I haven't booked it yet I'm the same as you not a 100% whether to go through it again, we both know it's not a nice experience but I want my perfect nose!! What problems are you having?

I have ridges on my bridge and my bridge is too wide, my septums visible through my nostril (theres a pic on my review) and i still have a hook! Im worried that because theres so many issues and itll be performed at the 6 month mark before everythings healed that i will end up with something worse! I just wish i could see into the future aha i had to take a month off work the first time round so what the hell will the second time roud be! I have days where im ok with my nose and days where i just hate it but im so confused about what to do :/

I'm so sorry to hear that Sammy :( and I know exactly how you feel..the good days & the bad! Has your surgeon offered to do the revision for free? I'm dreading the whole thing again & as I travelled abroad the costs & time!! Let me know what you decide :)
