When does initial swelling go away from closed tip plasty?

Asked By:ballinaire in Pohjois-Pohjanmaa, Finland

Hi! I had tip plasty done with closed technique, no bones altered. I knew there'd be swelling but this is freaking me out a bit. When does the initial swelling normally go away? What can I expect regarding swelling? I understand it varies from person to person, but how does it usually play out? Kind regards
