How much swelling remains at 2 months following rhinoplasty?
This is a very frequently asked question. Swelling after rhinoplasty takes about 6 months to resolve completely. The swelling reduces in the follwing manner; at 2 weeks around 1/3 is gone. At a month, 1/3 to 1/2 has cleared. At 2 months 1/2 to 2/3 has resolved. The remaining swelling trails off over the follwoing 4 months.

Still swollen
You will probably still have some more changes. Always expect a revision procedure to have a longer period of swelling then the original.

Post osteotomy swelling
