Nose Re-Surgery@rhino-redo

Am I the only one whose upper nostril area looks dark or bluish?

So I looked through old photos too, and even before surgery and right after surgery, there seemed to be traces of pigmentation like in the third photo. I wonder if I’m being too sensitive about it, so nose surgery …
