As I had a very bulbous tip and slight droop. As soon as my cast had been taken off I noticed a difference but 5 months on and it looks exactly the same as it did before the surgery. I know it swells up but will it still be swollen after 5 months? I cannot see much difference or change :(

Answer: Rhinoplasty Results You have to give yourself some more healing time. Your nose and surrounding areas are going to be swollen for a while and you should be consulting the surgeon that performed the procedure. However, give yourself some time before going back in so some of it can subside. It can take up to a year for final results. Sincerely, Philip J.

Answer: Rhinoplasty recovery Everyone's healing times are different. It is not unusual to see a bit more swelling after the dressings are removed. Often thick skin takes longer to settle and slim than thin skin. The rate of swelling resolution varies too and depends on what you had done. Swelling of the tip at 5 months is not unusual. It takes 12 to 18 months to settle usually.
