I did rhinoplasty (ear cartilage placement to the tip, silicon to nose bridge and side nasal lift ) 2 weeks ago. But now just 2 weeks after surgery my nose still looks bulbous (I know it's still swollen) but it doesn't look like my tip will reduce any much more. I want to know is tip reduction surgery the best choice for my bulbous nose and will the size of my nose tip reduce more after swelling is gone or is it just gonna be just as big? Wanting to have tip reduction next year around April.
