Will my nose bridge go down over time? I’m 10 days post op rhinoplasty (photos)

March 5, 2018
Asked By:alexizak in New York, NY

I had a closed rhinoplasty where my surgeon removed the bridge, narrowed and shortened the tip. I also asked him to lower the bridge and he said he would. When the cast was removed 3DAYS ago I noticed my bridge is still high. Is this the swelling? Will it go down over time? And wil the tip stay where it is or will it drop? I’m really not satisfied with the results so far and tried to e-mail my doctor about it but I havent received any anwsers from his part.
