Nose looks more swollen 6 months after rhinoplasty?

Asked By:ninaninas in San Diego, California

I got rhinoplasty in March, I had a double deviated septum and was mainly concerned about my flared nostrils. The first few photos were taken 1 month in and Iwas swollen but I loved that my nose looked small and thin most days. Then about 3 months in, my nose was even more swollen. Now i’m 6 months out and I feel like it’s bigger and my nostrils are not the same shape anymore. I’m afraid this is a bigger problem than swelling. Shouldn’t it look better by now? The doc said it’s 80% healed.
