Yesterday I had my cast removed (7 days op) and that there was a little bump left. I am really concerned because that was the main reason I had rhinoplasty. How big is the change that this is due to swelling?

Answer: Residual hump after rhinoplasty Within 7 days following nose surgery, no real judgment concerning the final result of the procedure can be made. Swelling after rhinoplasty surgery (especially an open procedure) is very common. It can take several months for the final result to be seen. You are still in the early healing phase. Continue to work closely with your plastic surgeon. He/She should be a source of reassurance and support as you continue to heal and improve. Several months from now, you just might love your result! Best of luck!

Answer: Sw There is a good chance that at 7 days following surgery, a significant portion of this residual bump is due to swelling. Be sure to follow all of your post-operative instructions and discuss any concerns with your surgeon during your follow up appointments.
