Upturned Nose - 4 Days After Surgery? (photo)

March 12, 2013
Asked By:RSMember2275 in Italy, IT

I had a rhinoplasty on 8th March so today is the 4th day after surgery. I know that the nose is very swollen but it seems to be very upturned...and nostrils haven't the same dimension (but it is visible that this is due to the swelling). I'm just a bit nervous...is it possible that the upturned nose is due to band-aid and to stitches? Will the tip drop? Thanks in advance.
