What Does Transposition of the Depressor Septi Mean in Rhinoplasty? Will I Get my Smile Back?

Will My Smile Return after Rhinoplasty

As we said in response to your other question about your upper lip, this fullness is secondary to swelling which is normal 7 weeks after rhinoplasty with a strut graft. Your swelling will decrease and your smile will improve as healing progresses.
