I had a rhinoplasty 2 weeks ago to remove a hump, narrow the bridge, and define the tip. The bridge is really narrow now and the tip is really long and hanging. It looks like I have a sausage on my nose and it really stands out and creates a terrible shadow and doesn't match with my nostrils. What do you think? Will it get better? I'm so sad!

Answer: Aesthetic Rhinoplasty Recovery Is A Long Process
When you have structural facial surgery, like a rhinoplasty, it can be difficult going through the recovery process. At two weeks after surgery, however, you are way too early to draw any conclusions about what the final result will be. Aesthetic recovery from rhinoplasty is a process of months and even up to a year after surgery to truly see the details of the outcome. While two weeks seems like a long time, it is but just the beginning of rhinoplasty recovery. You are still considerably swollen and most of the nasal features are still very distorted. You should not even begin to critique your nose before 6 to 8 weeks after surgery and realize that even then you have a long way to go.

Answer: Regrets after rhinoplasty Based on your photos you look quite well at two weeks. Few would wish to go back to the 'before'. Computer imaging prior to surgery to try out the new 'look' can be very helpful to avoid surprise and regret. We think your nose is just fine, though you are the most important one.
