I did my primary rihnoplasty 7 weeks ago. My nose is still swollen a bit. But some days it looks terrible especially from the tip, and i dont know why it looks like that. However, i noticed that maybe 3 days out of the days after my rihnoplasty that my nose looked so good in shape and almost not swollen. Should rely on that as a final result of my nose? Because i as satsfied with that look and not what it looks like now

Answer: Rhinoplasty At 7 weeks out, you are still early in the healing process. It can take a year or longer for the nose to settle and for the swelling to subside.

Answer: Swelling After Rhinoplasty Swelling following a rhinoplasty procedure is a big concern for patients. We always tell our patients you really can't appreciate the true results of rhinoplasty for a full YEAR. That's not to say you should expect to be exceptionally swollen for an entire year, but it does take quite a while following surgery before the secondary changes begin to become apparent. We actually made a video featuring one of our rhinoplasty patients who later became an employee at our practice, explaining her post-op swelling. (See video below)You also mentioned on your photo that your tip was "hard" which is very common following rhinoplasty. This firmness is a result of swelling, which will subside over time, but also good rhinoplasty surgeons actually reinforce the tip with with cartilage to keep it from dropping after surgery.If you would like to learn more about our practice, and watch our team in action, add us on Snapchat!
