pros: quick recovery, minimal pain, can change the nose dramatically
cons: long wait for results, could be expensive, risk of revision

overall I recommend it.

i had primary rhinoplasty 9 months ago.

the pros: made nose smaller, straight , easy recovery , not painful

the cons: expensive, might have undesired results,

I had primary rhinoplasty 9 months ago. I am middle eastern and I had a pretty big nose, bulbous tip. I am now happy with my profile (i like a bit of a bone), but I feel like the tip is still significantly big and round compared to the bridge (and a little pinched, but thats not my point here). It Could it be rhinoplasty swelling at 9 months? the transition from the bridge to the tip is not smooth. What could it be? final result? plz see pic.

I had an open rhinoplasty done 8 months ago. one side of my profile looks a little different from the other -- the tip seems bigger on one side. Could it be swelling at one side at 8 months?

I've heard of rhinoplasty swelling lasting 12-18 months, so you're still well within that range. Do you have any recent photos of your nose?

Your nose lookks beautiful. i had rhinoplasty 6 weeks ago and i have the same "problem". I love profile, but uneven tip has me worried, still better the pre-op. So good luck and I hope someone anwsers us!!

You look beautiful, please don't get another surgery or you might regret it. You should really be happy with your results, you look like Jennifer Lopez!
