Uneven swelling 6 weeks after rhinoplasty, advice? (photo)

Nearly all patients have swelling, sometimes asymmetrical, six weeks after rhinoplasty. Your base view is the least important view, and there does not appear to be significant asymmetry. Consider re-asking your query with before and after photos with a description of your concerns. Thank you. Dr Joseph

Congratulations on your rhinoplasty.  6 weeks is far too early to be concerned about the need for a revision.  The view you show a near picture shows a nice triangular shaped nose which indicates to me a good rhinoplasty.  Swelling of the nasal tip is the most profound swelling following rhinoplasty and a most tip swelling does not totally resolve for often up to a year.  I would not consider a revision before 6-8 months if you and your surgeon decided that she need one.

Thank you for your question. 
With any nasal surgery, the name of the game is patience. At one week, we would expect you to have quite a bit of swelling and bruising still noticeable and may have trouble breathing out of one or both nostrils. By the end of two weeks, typically, you will still be swollen but look more like you have a bad cold, rather than post surgical. Swelling can take up to a year to be completely gone, however, by 9 weeks you will look very good and should see big difference from your pre-op pics. I encourage you to stay patient.
