I just wanted to correct a little bump I had, to make my nose straight. My former nose was nice and did not needed a lot of work. I insisted the dr to maintain a natural look, but I feel now the angle of the tip is not the right one and my nose looks too short for my face. I look too fake. I am very disappointed with the results. I look not only piggy but like Michael Jackson.
Answer: 6-weeks post-op? Rhinoplasty Results It's still too soon to tell what your final results will be. You need to have patience with your body as it begins to heal. The skin, bone and cartilage are all traumatized during surgery. Inflammation (swelling) is the normal response and will help your nose to heal and look beautiful in the end. If, one year from now, you are unhappy with your nose, then that is the time to think about a revision procedure. Right now, concentrate on other things you like to do and let your nose and under eyes take the time to heal. I hope this helps.

Answer: Upturned look after surgery You are still very early in the healing process so you likely still have significant swelling, making it difficult to evaluate your final results at this time. This swelling can take 6-12 months to resolve so try to be patient as your body heals.

Answer: Unhappy I appreciate your concern following surgery ,I do not feel your nose will get longer or go down with time . It often takes a while to get used to a new look but my patients usually can tell if “it’s right “ , even with a cast in place .. I would allow a minimum of 6 months for this to heal and if you’re not happy consider a revision

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 but 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. Miller, MD, FACS Double Board Certified Facial Plastic Surgeon

Answer: Healing post rhinoplasty Thank you for your pictures! You are very early in the healing process, so it is still too early to tell you what the end result will be. What is constant is that rotation tends to drop, and lengthen the nose with time. Again this also depends on what maneuvers your surgeon performed during your surgery. Give things time, and let it settle. Rhinoplasty healing can often be a little bit of a rollercoaster, so hang in there! You are doing great. Make sure you mention your concerns to your doc and theyll be more than happy to go over everything with you and what you can expect. I hope some of this helps.
