Asked By:Anny191

Hello! I've had an open rhinoplasty 16 days ago, and today (16th of August) I saw two kind of "blisters" next to both sides of my nose. What could this be? Should I be concerned, or is it normal? Is it related to my rhinoplasty? They itch a lot, but it doesn't hurt to touch them. Please know that if somehow I had to contact my surgeon, I can't since it was done abroad. Also, I'm sorry for my nose being kinda dirty in the pic: having a very hard time to clean it properly. Thanks in advance!

Can cutting the depressor septi muscle affect the shape of my nose? What can I do to stop my nose moving while I talk? (photo)
Leslie Irvine, MD says:

Hi! You could try a small dose of Botox (or Dysport or Xeomin) to the depressor nasi septi muscle.  This would be a temporary and minimally invasive method to see if you like the way your nose and smile look when this muscle is inactivated. You may find that you love it, or you may find...
