Why does it take so long to recover from rhinoplasty?

Asked By:Alexanderr in Abbeyville, Colorado, Yhdysvallat

I’m curious to know the reason why does it take so long to recover from rhinoplasty? I recently had the procedure and i’m on 7 months and there has been not any issues. However the most annoying part for me has been the waiting and because the nose is still swollen from leftside of the tip and leftside of the bridge (it was operated more than rightside). I thought i was a person with patience but the waiting is scary and has been the most difficult part for me:D
