Will my nose get any smaller 6 months post rhinoplasty?

January 16, 2012
Asked By:BossTycoon

I got Closed Rhinoplasty. My nose used to have a huge hump on it, and now it's straight, but from the front it looks wide, and from the side it looks like it's sticking out too much. When I press my fingers down on the area where the hump used to be, it feels like bone and it doesn't feel swollen. Will it get any smaller?
