It can take up to one year - even longer for some patients - for swelling to go down completely and the final outcome to become evident. In the meantime, you should be seeing your surgeon regularly for follow-up visits at this time, so be sure to address any concerns at your next appointment.

The columella should drop after rhinoplasty depending what the surgeon did to it during surgery. It takes 6-12 months, so try to be patient.
