Unhappy with Results - Should I Get a 2nd Rhinoplasty?

User Avatar

After 3 months from my surgery I dont completely like results. My nose is still very swelled and the tip looks long in profile because of this. I had an open rhinoplasty combined with cartilage reduction on my adam's apple. I swelled so bad that my entire face was round and I had bruising even under my lips, tongue, black around the eyes, and with hemorrhage inside one of my eyes. Can this be a reason why I'm still very swelled? The surgeon says that some swell more than others and that it takes up to a year for it to go away. I'm nevertheless still worried
