Is my nose still swollen 6 months post-op or is this my final result? (photos)

Asked By:KAMI1223

I am young, healthy and have thin skin but experienced significant swelling immediately after rhinoplasty and it seems my nose is still swollen at 6 months post-op, especially around the bridge where my dorsal hump was removed. Will this ever be resolved? My surgeon says to be patient but I am becoming concerned by the lack of progress.
