What has happened to my nose? It seems like a pig nose: more upturned, short, very bulbous and wide. Suggestions? (photos)

Hello, thank you for your question and shared photos.Based on them we can say that as healing process requires, you have swelling as a part of your healing. Your nose  can look upturned due to edema and swelling, you need to complete your healing that take at least one year.Best Regards,

Dear Susanlucci, I would discuss your concerns with your surgeon. See your surgeon often as he/she knows best what your proposed results were, what techniques were used during your procedure, and where you are in the recovery phase. Hopefully they can walk you through your recovery with some peace of mind. See some examples in the link below and a patient a few months post surgery to one year to get an idea of expected changes you may see. Best regards, Michael V. Elam, M.D.
