Hello, I had rhinoplasty done 13 days ago and feel that my nose is not straight. I had bone and scar tissue removed from the area where it looks like a small dent on my nose. Not sure if its just the swelling where my looks uneven but I am worried that the nose will not be even. Scar tissue was also removed from the tip which is also swollen, but happy with that.... Should I be worried about this?

Great review?

Swelling in the postoperative period may impair visualization of the final contour of your nose. I would recommend waiting and then a simple correction would be warranted at a later point.

I did it 2 wks ago. I am kind of happy, but not really... I just wanted a straight side profile.

Hi there,

I'm sorry you're feeling discouraged with your results. If it helps, you're still in early days and you have a lot of healing yet to do.

Here's what some doctors said to another RealSelf member who was concerned about a nose dent after rhinoplasty. Please let us know how you continue to heal!
