I’m almost three weeks after surgery, healing process going well and yet no complications. I still have swelling on the tip, but I would say 70% of the swelling is already gone. I was wondering, when is it preferably to start consuming the alcohol after the surgery? I completely understand that excessive consumption of alcohol is not permitted yet, and I’m not planning to. My question is, will one-two glasses of wine damage my healing process and destroy the results of plastic surgery??

Alcohol after Rhinoplasty

I am amazed that you are concerned about when you can have 2 glasses of wine after the time and money you spent for surgery which has changed your appearance for the rest of your life. Follow your surgeon's instructions.
