How Long Does Skin Reshaping Last After Rhinoplasty?

January 31, 2011
Asked By:Cleveland3286 in Cleveland, OH

I received my initial rhinoplasty about 1.5 years ago and because not enough cartlidge was removed on the dorsal part, I had a revision rhinoplasty done abut 6 momnths ago. I know that I have thick skin and I am a slow healer,but I'm getting a bit concerned! The dorsal hump is very much improved but now the skin seems to be too much for the smaller nose.It is not draping tightly and because of this I have dents and "shadows" where the skin is tight and where it is loose.What can I expect? Thank
