I had rhinoplasty surgery 17 days ago and the skin on my nose is still awful! Pimples galore and I can't squeeze them cause my Nose is still very tender. And it's also quite dry and flakey at th same time! Has anyone else had this problem and have any idea how to fix it?? I've tried Manuka honey, savlon, coconut oil, toothpaste nothing seems to help. Any suggestions appreciated!

Hello and thank you for your question. It is very normal to be swollen at 1 month postoperative. The dorsal aspect of the bridge of the nose will usually decrease earlier than the nasal tip swelling. Nasal tip swelling can sometimes take 6-12 months to fully resolve. I advise patients...
Will weight-loss affect results of rhinoplasty? No!I have seen weight fluctuations in my patients over the past 35 years although the rest of the face changes the nose will not other than aging.
