This was revision nose surgery, and on the 21st I had silicone 35 for the bridge and autologous costal cartilage for the tip. For 2 weeks the swelling went down well, but 3-4 days after removing the internal stitches, I started feeling a very strong pulling and tightness in the inside tissue around the bridge and tip The outside looked fine at first, but then it gradually swelled and turned reddish. The symptoms aren't improving, so I went back to the plastic surgery clinic where I had the surgery, and they said it's ambiguous to call it inflammation, and if I'm really worried they'll prescribe medicine, so I'm taking it now I'm so worried that even if it isn't inflammation, I can't calm my anxious mind…

Nose Re-Surgery@rhino-redoJul 19 Has anyone had their nasal tip fullness come back after removal?
They said they removed a little fat from my nasal tip, but I liked having a thick, full nasal tip. Has anyone had it come back? When removing it, should I ask them to leave a little scar tissue at the nasal tip?
