I got my rhinoplasty on September 15, 2017 and it has been almost 4 months and still my nose is swollen. Mostly the tip and the right side ! It’s freaking me out ! My best friend had hers done last year and looked much better around her 4 months ! Any ideas , suggestions?

Answer: Swelling after Rhinoplasty The amount of swelling following a rhinoplasty can vary depending on your skin thickness, thicker skin tends to hold on to swelling longer, and the extent of your surgery with more procedures leading to more swelling. The majority of the swelling is usually resolved by the first 2 months, however it can take up to a year or more for full healing.

Answer: I am almost 4 months post rhinoplasty and my nose is still swollen! Is this normal? Typically, the initial swelling after nose surgery subsides within two to three weeks. However, residual swelling, especially in the tip of the nose, can take about a year to resolve as the contour refines. Swelling can also vary through the day, being more prominent in the morning. People heal at different rates as everyone is different. Try and be patient as your nose will continue to heal and make changes. Best of luck to you!
