Almost 9 months post septorhinoplaty - will my shape continue to improve? (photos)

December 1, 2023
Asked By:Considerate329695 in San Francisco, California

I had a septorhinoplasty 8 months and 2 weeks ago, so I’m nearly 9 months post-op. Overall, my appearance is greatly improved and my nose functions properly now. I’m getting close to a year post-op however and I’m nervous about my right nostril showing more than my left nostril, and the roundness of the tip. Is the shape of my tip going to improve? I feel like it will never swell down. It looked so good immediately post-op.
