Healing After 6 Rhinoplasties

If you are still unhappy after multiple rhinoplasties you must consider a couple of possibilities:


1. Are your goals realistic
2. Are you choosing the best possible surgeon for your procedures

Yes, you're correct that with increased surgery on your nose, the tissue healing generally takes longer. The normal lymphatic channels that help divert excess tissue fluid are also more limited with increasing surgery.

With time the swelling should resolve but will likely evolve over the course of a few years.

You are correct in that the healing would be expected to take a lot longer after multiple rhinoplasties than after a single or repeat procedure. The tissues are more scarred and healing takes longer as does the swelling to resolve. If you had rib cartilage and fascia I would expect a much longer healing time.
