Does nose tip drop after rhinoplasty?
By Barbie412 on 22 Mar 2010
I had a rhinoplasty done 2 weeks ago. I was hoping for perfectly straihgt looking nose. Could it be that the tip is still swollen and looks little upturned. Will it change with time and get straighter. Maybe I won't get the results I was hoping for because my tip was very upturned and that's all I could achieve with just one surgery?. Is such a radical change possible with only one surgery?

i had open rhinoplasty 6 days ago. my nose appears shorter and stubbier and upturned more now...even though its supposed to be the opposite. My dr used a graft to extend it a bit and supposedly bring the tip down but it doesnt look that way at all. Is this just swelling and does that type of improvements just take longer to show up due to swelling??? im really depressed i think it looks worse and the areas that look skinnier seem to emphasize the big areas. This is awful.
are you happy with the results now? would you suggets dr. gunter to a loved one?
I have read that the tip does drop some, but not drastically, over time. I realize you were going for a different aesthetic, but I think you look amazing!
Honestly, be happy with your nose. I like it!!
