Asked By:lucymarquez97 in New York, New York, Estados Unidos
I had a closed rhinoplasty in september of 2022. It has been 10 months post procedure and my nose still looks crooked - i cant understand if this is swelling or if i will need a revision. My doctor told me two months ago that it is just swelling, but i am almost at the year mark and it still looks very crooked to me. I would love to hear your input and consider other surgeons in case i need a revision. Thank you.
