I am not happy with my nose job 8 days post septoplasty. What can I do?? (photos)

You have residual swelling after surgery. Apply Plato's Scar Serum to the nose and massage. Take SwellX tablets to reduce swelling postop and wait for the swelling to subside. Best, Dr. KaramanoukianLos Angeles

Hi, Thank you for your post. After septoplasty the swelling can take up to a year to go down so you will not see the true results until this time. Be patient and give your nose time to heal. Sometimes your surgeon can use steroids to help with the swelling. Contact your surgeon if you have any concerns.

It takes a long time for a nose to heal, particularly one with costal cartilage placed in the nose.  Give your nose time to heal, since 8 days after surgery the nose will be swollen.  Once your nose has had more time, you can start to see your true results.
