i recently had rhino 2 weeks and 4 days ago,i have a problem when i smile i look like a witch and i have a running nose as in it feels like i have a cold,i am a singer and it has changed my voice,is it normal? the price was cheaper because i did 2 surgeries.i am healing really slowly,the dr told me swelling will be gone in 2weeks but is still there i need to return to stage any help on how i can help reduce the swelling?i had cortisone shot last week but i still have he bump,i resume work next week i can not go to events looking like a wimzy witch especially when i smile.i am black maybe that is why but will that change?

Two weeks for swelling to subside is pretty optimistic. Most doctors say a month for 70% of it to go and another year for your final results to reveal themselves. You might want to check out this question and doctor answers for a RealSelf user who was concerned about rhinoplasty affecting her voice.

I had a pretty nasally voice after my rhinoplasty for several months but it eventually did return to normal, thank God. Didn't have that problem with my revision rhinoplasty.

I hope everything calms down soon so you can get back to work. I know that lots of ladies in our tummy tuck community take arnica to help control swelling, but I have no idea how well it works.

What is the name of your surgeon? Are the results better now that time has past? (:
