What is the average rhinoplasty recovery time? When should I expect to be able to go out in public after a nose job, and when will the bandages come off?

Answer: Rhinoplasty recovery After rhinoplasty you will have a bandage on your nose. I leave it on for one week. Most patients can be seen at this time but may need some coverup makeup for the bruising.

Answer: Post op rhinoplasty recovery I perform rhinoplasty as a day case and there is no nasty packing to be removed. One week post op the splint and sutures are removed. If no nasal bone fractures were needed than you're already looking good! With fractures there is usually some bruising but once the splint is off makeup can be worn. Mostly people can head out in public a week to 10 days post-op. Of course there is still plenty of swelling at this stage.

Answer: Rhinoplasty recovery time Great question! The splint usually comes off at one week after surgery (both external and internal splits if both were placed). You should be able to go out in public after a week, accepting that there may still be some swelling and bruising around the eyes. At one week, bruising can be covered with concealer. If the bones are broken during your rhinoplasty, there may be more bruising.
