Will my nose bridge still go down 6 months post-rhinoplasty?

August 12, 2022
Asked By:reiinaaa in Philippines

I’m 25/F and had rhinoplasty ~6 months ago (4.5mm Gore-tex implant, ear cartilage on the tip). I’m bothered that my “new nose” doesn’t look harmonious with my small face since the bridge looks a bit too high for my liking. Can I expect the bridge to shrink/go down until 12 months?
