How much will the nose deswell after cast removal? (photos)

Asked By:kchoe16 in San Francisco, CA

I know that the nose I see immediately after cast removal is not the final result. However, I was wondering just how drastic the change will be in the following months? I removed my cast yesterday one week after surgery, and I noticed that the tip of my nose is very bulbous and round and looks exactly the same as my original nose. As it deswells, will the tip of my nose narrow significantly or will there be little difference? Thank you.
