I have uneven swelling 8 weeks post op rhinoplasty, septoplasty, turbinate reduction. Is this still swelling? (Photo)

I agree with Dr. Zaworski that the swelling after rhinoplasty can take quite a while to subside. In fact, subtle swelling can be present (usually only noticeable to you and your surgeon) for a year or longer. The same is true for minor asymmetries which in most case resolve over time. While photographs are often helpful, only a physical exam can distinguish normal swelling from a problem.  For this reason, frequent and long-term follow up with your surgeon is recommended. I hope you find this helpful.

Swelling will persist for up to 1 year after rhinoplasty. Since you are especially early in the process, it is possible that it looks more swollen than you would have hoped. With time the swelling will go down and in order to possibly speed the process I recommend arnica pills, sleeping in an elevated position and cold compressions. Best of luck.Dr. Ali Sajjadian

At eight weeks post-op you most likely have a lot of swelling. This will take a full year to settle completely. Best to be patient at this point.
