Answer: Rhinoplasty and chin recovery 8 days to recover from rhinoplasty is enough in the sense that you'll be physically able to participate in many work related duties and some exercise. However, if you are a VERY private person you may find there are some signs of your surgery (mostly swelling) that will linger and possible tip others off to your recent work. That being said there's a good chance you will be presentable. Best of luck. You will likely be fine but, again, there should be some swelling remaining.Chase Lay, MDdouble board certified facial plastic surgeon

Answer: Will 8 days be enough time to recover after a rhinoplasty and chin augmentation? Recovery after a dual rhinoplasty and chin implant is gradual and can be broken down into stages. After the first week, you should be cleared to resume light daily routines, given that you are still avoiding strenuous physical activity and are allowing your body adequate time to rest. At 8 days post-op, you will likely still be noticeably swollen and bruised. However, if you feel comfortable enough at this point to return to work (given that you are not straining or over-working yourself), you should be able to do so.

Answer: Time off Work for rhinoplasty and chin augmentation Each physician have different guidelines regarding post operative care. Typically, light activity can resume 5 to 7 post surgery. Bruising and most swelling generally resolve itself in the first two weeks. Residual swelling that can take 6 to 12 months to resolve but not noticable to the general public. Consult with your surgeon regarding your case as he or she will know the scope of surgery and the specifics about you.

Answer: Will 8 days be enough time to recover after a rhinoplasty and chin augmentation? Maybe but over the internet we can give ONLY generalized recommendations not specific to your exact case... In my opinion for 3 weeks is needed for 80%+ recovery.

Answer: Rhinoplasty and chin implant recovery There is usually more bruising associated with the rhinoplasty than a chin implant. It is possible to return to work 8 days after the procedures, however you will most likely have some degree of residual bruising and swelling. In our practice, we tell patients to expect approximate 10-14 days of some degree of swelling and bruising which is variable among patients.
