I am 4 months post op rhinoplasty. Will driving ruin my results?

There is no evidence that driving affects the results of rhinoplasty.After 4 months usually the bones and cartilage are solid enough to stand any driving style.Smokers have a much slower healing so this might not apply. if you do smoke or had any form of traumas following your surgery this might explain your symptoms. In those cases you should inform your physician.Otherwise you shall improve with time.With regards,

It is safe to drive even on a bump-year-old when year 4 months post rhinoplasty.  In fact you can start driving as soon as a few days after rhinoplasty.A sensation of pulling on the nose will not do any harm. The only harm that can happen is if you hit your face face on the steering wheel.RegardsDr. J

Thank you very much for enquire.It's too early to make value judgments with four months after a rhinoplasty.Swelling after a rhinoplasty depends of the surgery complexity.To reduce this swelling, I recommend you perform delicates daily lymphatic drainage massage therapy over the face (around the nose) avoid sun exposure, and take pain/inflamation pills, as your surgeron precribe you.Kind regards, Dr. Emmanuel Mallol Cotes.-
