Would not icing after rhinoplasty affect the final results. I haven't used ice immediately after the surgery as I was nauseous most of the time. Would that affect the results?

Answer: Icing following rhinoplasty Icing after most types of surgery will reduce swelling and discomfort in the immediate post operative period. Not icing may lead to a longer period of swelling but should not affect the long term results. Be careful not to freeze the skin since this may lead to damage.

Answer: Ice after rhinoplasty Thank you for the wonderful question. Ice helps with the postoperative swelling and reduces immediate swelling. In terms of long term results, it is hard to say but I would have close follow up with your surgeon. Good luck, Dr. Bublik
