6 Weeks Post-Op Rhinoplasty, Will Swelling Continue to Decrease or Is This My Final Result?

Hayoota
Hi its been 40 days since Ive done with my open rhinoplasty but Im so depressed now cuz my nose is still looks big and puffy and its base looks wide I heard that it may take some time to the final result to be shown so, will my nose look any different after some weeks or month? Will it get any smaller? P.S :the surgeon has shown me a big bon and small pieces of cartillage that have been cut from my nose in the surgery , thats why i thought it would be way smaller than before
