Asked By:nicola_green in England, United Kingdom

Hi, I've recently had rhinoplasty (reduce hump, smaller bulbous bit) away from home, and wanted to have botox around my crows feet and forehead while I'm here. Is 6 days post rhinoplasty too short a waiting period? Should I just wear it and come back another time? I'm on day 2 post op now and very swollen around the eyes.

Answer: Botox after rhinoplasty should wait until the fluid from swelling has drained so the Botox is not diluted, or migrates
