How long will a revision rhinoplasty take to heal if its only the tip?

Asked By:holiday81 in Kansas

I had rhinoplasty 15 months ago. The swelling subsided much slower than most and I think there is still swelling in the tip, but I am resigned to the fact that the result is not what I wanted. The tip is elevated a little using a graft which I don't like and is a bit too rounded. I would love a revision just to correct this- the very tip- but I'm worried about recovery as I know how slow it was for me. If its just the very tip and minor adjustments, how long should a revision take to heal?
