i jus had rhinoplasty 18 days ago and my nose still looks puffy/swolen to me and allitle wide, i had my bump removed and my breathing fixed, i like the way it is healing i see improvement from 5 days ago but only alittle and was wondering how long does it take for it to look less puffy and wide, i dont want my final result to look like this and was wondering will swelling go down more and will it look less wide, i guess i have thickish skin so will that stop it from gettin less puffy and wide

Now that your incisions are well healed after rhinoplasty you should be cleared to resume Accutane. However, you need to check with your dermatologist and your plastic surgeon so they both can clear to resume this medication
Yes, the lips and entire face may feel sore or pressure after rhinoplasty. Most of the rhinoplasty discomfort improves within the first week and continues to improve with time. Other symptoms, such as body ache or sore throat, may be due to the anesthesia and not necessarily the rhinoplasty...
Absolutely! You are describing a classic development problem. The tip of the septum is in the left nostril, the rest of the septum crosses into the right airway slightly farther back (that is your big red mass), and the nose is deviated the other way, to your left....
