My nose looks ugly after getting it done? (Photo)

Thank you for sharing your concerns about your recent rhinoplasty procedure. Given that your surgery was only one month ago, you are likely still seeing a significant amount of swelling. As I am sure your surgeon mentioned, this swelling is to be expected and is completely normal for up to one year after surgery. As the swelling goes down over the next few months, you should be able to appreciate some refinement in your nasal features. I recommend following up with your surgeon at his/her recommended intervals and you should certainly discuss your concerns. However, I am fairly confident that once the swelling subsides you will be happier with the results. Happy healing!

It is always difficult to assess the final result so early in the healing process.  Swelling can take up to a year to resolve. At one month following rhinoplasty, the junction between the tip and the dorsum will likely be swollen.  You will probably need 6 months or more to assess this more predictably.Kenneth Hughes, MD, Board Certified Plastic SurgeonLos Angeles, CA

At one month post op, you nose is still swollen.  Be patient and give it time.  Follow your doctors instructions and discuss concerns with your surgeon.
