I hate my rhinoplasty - 6 days post op - will it look drastically different once the swelling has gone down?

Thank you very much for enquire.

It's too early to make value judgments with only six days after a rhinoplasty.Swelling after a rhinoplasty depends of the surgery complexity.In this regard, the nasal swelling Post-op It can last from two weeks to two months.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.-  

Thank you for your question. The healing process after rhinoplasty requires a special brand of patience as the nose swells and obscures the final form for some time.  We usually tell patients to expect to look very swollen for a few weeks with slow steady improvement afterwards.  Most of the healing and results are in place by around 2 months, though things are still in evolution for 6 months or so. My advice is to give it some time to heal and see the final result. Wishing you a speddy recovery!

photos would help but it usually takes 6-12 months before you will see the end results.  Even though it is difficult, it is important to be patient during the early healing phase. I also do not understand why you had a augmentation rhinoplasty if you wanted a scoop from the side ??
