Also my cast would be removed 5 days after rhinoplasty surgery. I thought it was a minimum of 7 days after. Was also told I can fly 5-6 days after my surgery. Am I getting positive information?

Answer: Nasal Cast Removal Hello, With my patients, I have a cast on the nose for the first week, then the nose will have tape on it for the second week. I prefer my patients avoid flying for a minimum of two weeks. Hope this helps answer your question. Thank you and best of luck. Dr. Nassif

Answer: The nose takes a month to stabilize after Rhinoplasty Most surgeons use tape and or firm splint or cast for 5 to 7 days. I have patients mold the nose with their fingers (in a mirror) for weeks after. This offers more control of the final shape of the nose, especially asymetry.

Answer: Nasal cast off in 5-7 days. Most surgeons leave the cast on for 5-7 days. It is only the preference of each surgeon. It keeps swelling down and protects against trauma.
