Will the hanging columella hang less after swelling goes down? I'm 2.5 weeks post op. (Photo)

Asked By:Neeka93 in Netherlands, NL

2,5 weeks ago, I had a septorhinoplasty. No tip work. Just correction of a deviated septum and some support stuff to prevent ptosis. After a week, cast was removed & the nose was really swollen, however there was no sign of an overly hanging columella with showing insides. Now, I can clearly see inside my nose. Is swelling of the columella the reason for this and will it hang less after the swelling goes down? (My columella is still very stiff and sensitive). If not, can it easily be treated?
