It's been 8 weeks since rhinoplasty and my nose now looks more swollen than in the first 2-3 weeks, especially on the right side of the middle of the bridge and the left side of the tip, which makes it look crooked. Is this just swelling or is it something more concerning?

Answer: 8 weeks post-op my nose looks crooked, is this just swelling? Without pre-op photos - it is impossible to give the best answer. Every patient has a different rate of swelling resolution. I would give it at least 6 months and then re-evealute your opinion of the result. If at that time- you are still concerned, and you are able to elicit the specific areas, then you can approach your Surgeon for revision . At that time you may also consider a second opinion. I would like to see your length shorter, your tip- smaller and refined, and your profile- silty more feminine.

Answer: Crooked Yes, your nose does appear crooked in the middle third of the nose. Some of this could be related to swelling. Best to give it more time to heal. If it is still crooked, then you might need further surgery.
