artefill treatment gone wrong?

I have been using artefill throughout the year for non surgical rhinoplasty, and up until the last injection, it has been very successful.  However, my last and final injection has my nose looking bulbous and slightly droopier and less straight (what I want it to be).  The swelling in my nose has started and stopped for the last month and a half and I am not sure if the doctor just screwed up or it is still possible for my nose to be a little swollen.  I still feel a little hardness and definitely some liquid in the tip of my nose (place of injection). Should I be really worried and is this potentially an absyss? Is there something I can do???????

Help!

It is really impossible to determine what is happening with your nose without a direct examination.  While I use Artefill a lot for nasolabial folds, I have used it fo a limited extent on selected areas of the nose.without problem.  If the problem persists, it is possible to remove some of it, but this would require surgery.
