Dropped tip and bulbous tip 2 weeks after rhinoplasty? (photo)

May 24, 2017
Asked By:Rihann224 in Dallas, TX

I know that it is really early and that my tip is still swollen, but was wondering if it was normal for the tip to be droopy this early on. If you look at my before pic, you can see my nostrils, but in the after, you can barely see my nostrils and my nose looks droopy and wide. (FYI, I had osteotomies and tip work done) also, is it normal for the tip to look even bigger than before post-surgery? I can see and feel a big ball of cartilage where my tip is.
