A: rhinoplasty at age 16?

Omar, 

Men can undergo a rhinoplasty procedure at age 16. By this time, the nose has fully developed and can be operated without risk.

A: morning swelling after rhinoplasty

Sybell,

This is common after rhinoplasty in some patients. We don't know why it happens to some, but it can sometimes may be due to thickness of the skin. What I can tell you with certainty is that it will stop. At the longest, it will take another six months, but it may occur sooner.

Will It Be Safe to Remove my Nasal Splint 4 Days After Rhinoplasty?

i have a rhinoplasty scheduled for next week. my doctor said he will keep the splint on my face for 7 days, but my mom surprised me with a plane ticket out of state scheduled 4 days after my surgery. i prefer not to have my nose bandaged during my visit. so, my question is: would it be ok to remove my nasal splint after 4 days? the only work my my cosmetic surgeon will be doing on my nose is a tip reduction and slight rotation, and just shaving down the bridge. Thanks!

A: splint removal after rhinoplasty

For most cases, it is ok to remove the splint after the fourth day. I persnally remove them after the fifth day,  but know plenty of excellent surgeons that remove them on the fourth day. I would not worry about it.
