What is the exact healing process after Rhinoplasty?

November 18, 2015
Asked By:Sampunk in Brazil, IN

I was just wondering how long it takes for the bones as well as the cartilage of the nose to be as strong as they were before I underwent the rhinoplasty. I heard that the bone goes back to its full strength within about 6 week. Is this true? What about the cartilage? Does it also take 6 weeks to go back to its full strength or does it take more? Thanks.
