Swelling between my eyes after rhinoplasty?

Thanks for your question. It is normal to experience swelling around the eyes and nose after a rhinoplasty... Overtime the swelling should go down but it could take around a year before the final result is apparent.All the best,Dr. ResultsMiami, FL

It takes up to one year for rhinoplasty swelling to go away.  Be patient.  Also bridge work that is done during rhinoplasty can sometimes cause such illusions.  It will take analysis of your before surgery photos to determine if surgery has had such impact.Discuss with your surgeon. You will not find its answer on internet.     

This is not uncommon following rhinoplasty surgery. Swelling differs in severity between individuals and can take up to a year to fully subside as the tissues normalize. As a precaution, be sure to bring your concern up to your surgeon. I expect you'll see the swelling decrease consistently over the next few weeks.Good luck!

Swelling after a rhinoplasty usually improves with time. It can take 6 months to a year to settle and sometimes longer.

What you are experiencing is not totally uncommon. When you augment the nose, the shadowing can change how far apart your eyes look. If you raise the bridge, it will accentuate the shadowing and may make the eyes appear closer together. if you reduce the height of the bridge, it reduces shadows and can make the eyes seem more widely set. A higher dorsum also makes the nose look more narrow and a lower dorsum may make the nose look wider. You are still early in the healing process and i would just continue to observe everything. Bring your concerns up with your surgeon and they should be able to explain further. Best of luck
