My rhinoplasty also included getting my nose pushed back in order to shorten it how ever I still feel like it looks quite big and long,l. I am 3weeks post op now. Is this just due to swelling or will it remain this length and size? Also the nose is slightly slanted to one side , is this also due to swelling?

Answer: 3 weeks postop with swelling At 3 weeks postop, you likely have diffuse swelling throughout the nose. This is expected and completely normal. The swelling will continue to subside over the coming weeks to months. Be patient during this process and allow the swelling to come down before focusing on certain asymmetries present on your nose. Be sure to follow up with your rhinoplasty surgeon during this time so they can monitor your nose for any changes and address any concerns you have along the way.

Answer: Postoperative Swelling Have patience, and follow up with your Plastic Surgeon. It takes weeks to months for the nose to heal. You may not see the final result until one year. Best wishes for an excellent recovery!
