Is this normal for a radix graft 1 week post-op? Will it end up looking like the simulation? (Photo)

You appear to have a pleasing nasal profile - your nose appears to start at your upper eyelash line rather than your forehead. The puffiness seen on front and oblique views may improve with time as your swelling reduces. If you're still bothered by your nasal appearance in a month, consider re-asking your query and consider posting before photos. Hope this helps! Dr Joseph

You can't take your present appearance to be indicative of your final result.  You have a lot of swelling where that radix graft was placed, and swelling in this part of the nasal skin can take a long time to resolve. Be patient. Best wishes!  Harry V. Wright MD, Sarasota, Florida

The radix is very swollen and you have to give it several months for things to settle down. Be patient and best of luck.

At one week, it is far too early to predict how the graft will look.  Swelling has not even begun to subside and the nose will be changing day to day now.  Try to be patient and remember what your surgeon told you about swelling.  Make sure he/she knows your concerns.  Be patient.  Good luck
