I started having a really weird rotten cheese-smell in my nose after my rhinoplasty. I'm currently 4 weeks post op and from what I've searched, it seems that a lot of people were having the same problem. Would anybody else smell this from my nose if I were to stand or sit by them (it's kinda awkward to ask someone) or is it in my nasal cavity? What should I do?? Is it safe to use Netipot 4 weeks post op??

Chin augmentation can be performed with rhinoplasty for a better facial balance. Your healing is well underway. You can have any of the procedures that you mentioned at any time.
