1 1/2 weeks post op revision rhinoplasty. Will my nose shrink?

April 10, 2019
Asked By:CeleneD in Ohio, OH

I got a revision rhinoplasty because I wanted my nose smaller and closer to my face. I felt like the tip of my nose was always big. Im a week and half post op and I feel my nose is bigger and sticks out farther. I look like Pinocchio. Also from the from my nostrils are uneven. I know there is a lot of changes because I went through this before but I don’t think my nose is going to shrink from the side. It feels like that is my bone. I am so upset about it
