Nose swelling hasn’t changed 3 months post op rhinoplasty. It's more swollen and rock hard. Does this happen to others? (photos)

Asked By:ckxpar18 in Paris, FR

Hi, I’ve just left my plastic surgeons for my 3 month check up, and she was stunned when she saw my face. We took our normal photos, and she said my nose actually looked more swollen than it did at my 1 month post op appointment. She touched my nose and it’s rock solid. She said normally at 3 months we start to see some definition, but my nose still looks like a potato. She said I’m in the “abnormal group” of people whose body isn’t responding well to the inflammation. Does this happen to others
