Indentation Taking Place in Upper Bridge 7days Post Op?

Ok so last Saturday I had a rhinoplasty done everything went perfect. Yesterday I got my tape cast off my nose looked perfect, it was completely straight butthe tip was still swollen. I staid up pretty late last night and my mom noticed that on the upper bridge of my nose in between my eyes it was a little red but I went to bed like nothing At 7 I woke up and noticed it sank It looks like an indentation is taking place I'm freaking out because I used to have a hooky kind of nose I am 14 yr girl

Rhinoplasty healing time

Dear Scared, Please do not worry, it is way, way too early to know the final results It will swell, come down, swell again in different places over the couple of weeks In about a month you will have some idea of what the bridge will look like In 6 months, you will have the final result Talk to your surgeon if you have any concerns Best regards, Nima Shemirani
