Asked By:july1990 in Texas, TX

Hi! I am post op 14 months, my nose is still too long. Can my nose be shortened under local anesthetic? And what would the swelling be like? for minor surgery, does swelling and scar tissue only last for a couple of weeks? or many months?My swelling from 1st rhino has 14 months. speaking of, what are the signs of scar tissue? How can i tell if im still swollen/ scar tissue? Thanks so much for supporting the cosmetic surgery patients! We all appreciate it!
