I recently had a second rhinoplasty based on an under correction from my first suregery 12 years ago. This most recent surgery I had the bump removed and the tip slightly rotated to stop drooping.

The pros have been a major improvement in my profile which was my major concern. I have a very small face.

The cons like most surgery is the risk involved. Rhinoplasty is a very detailed and precise surgery--its an art as well as science. Make sure you choose a very experienced surgeon.

I had grafts placed on each side of my tip--up above my nostrils. I'm two weeks out from surgery. As the swelling has gone down,one side of the nose the graft is visible and more pronounced. Will the graft-swelling go down as my nose selling goes down? Could this mean the graft was mis-shaped or too large?

Great review?
