My radix is high, makes my eyes a bit cross eyed. My original nose was curved to begin with. My radix looks like I have bump. High and very prominent looking upfront. My tip nose feels tender but not much. Radix part feels normal. I am worried it might not go down since I dont see any swelling. My doctor said it will go down by 10% in 3 months time, I trust him that it will. He told me, my nose has a double break, to soften the look. However, the radix being high, it looks unnatural not soft. Thank you.

Answer: Asian Rhinoplasty - Recovery First At 3 weeks, you are extremely early in your recovery period and the nose is expected to be quite swollen at this point. The majority of the swelling will resolve in 3-6 months, and will continue to resolve as your nose heals for up to 1-2 years. You have not reached your final shape as the nose will continue to heal and reduce in size for up to a year. Once it does reach its final shape you may be more pleased with the appearance of your nose.

Answer: Asian rhinoplasty recovery takes some time and patience It's too early to tell. Take note that it typically takes 9 months to a full year before the final shape becomes apparent. Give yourself enough time to adjust to the new appearance of your nose. You may find that your bridge looks too high initially and might be too anxious with your result, until you get used to your new look. Most rhinoplasty surgeons feel that the bridge of the Asian nose should not go beyond the eyelashes or at least at the same level to preserve the patients' ethnicity and create a new nose that looks natural relative to the rest of their face.

Answer: Asian Rhinoplasty Thank you for your question. At 20 days out you are still fairly swollen. In addition to this one picture of your nose this close up is not enough to determine what may be going on. I would suggest including other views from a frontal and oblique view to really assess your nose from multiple dimensions. Best wishes Theodore T. Nyame MD
