Small dent after nose job. Can it be due to swelling or should I be concerned?

Thank you for your question. Unfortunately, the answer is that it is too early to tell.  It may be that the dent will get worse as the swelling goes down, but it is also certainly possible that it goes away as the surrounding swelling abates.  I know this isn't the answer most people want to hear, but its the unfortunate reality.  Try not to worry about it if you can.  Continue your regular follow up with your surgeon and bring any concerns you have to their attention.  All the best!

Dear Sharon At 12 days, you should just be patient and wait. Share your concern with your surgeon at your followup visit. It will take time before the swelling settles and you have a better idea of your results. Sharing it with your surgeon is important so he know your concerns and can help guide you to the best outcome possible. Congratulations on having had your nose surgery!!
