I had septorhinoplasty 4 and a half months ago. After surgery, my skin became too loose, which makes my face look like it is drooping, adding at least 10 years to my face(I am 33). See the pictures. Will the issue go away by the 12 mo mark. Is there anything that can be done to reverse this effect(besides plastic surgery)? I have thick skin but I don't see any improvement over time...the problem becomes worse. Thank you

Answer: Loose skin At this time it is still too early to determine the final results. If after one year you haven't seen adequate improvement you can consider options to address your concerns. The correct recommendation will depend on how everything heals. Potential treatments could include fillers, AccuTite, and Morpeheus8. Often times patients elect to combine one or more of these options to enhance results.

Answer: Postoperative swelling Hi and welcome to our forum!From your photos, I note fullness of the lower eyelid and of cheeks and the nasolabial fold, both areas a distance away from the surgery itself. The early rhinoplasty result appears excellent.As you are only 4 1/2 months out of surgery, this is a normal phenomenon. The performance of rhinoplasty involves the dissection of the nasal bones and cartilages from overlying and underlying structures, fracturing the nasal bones, removing excess bone / cartilage, reshaping of the remaining bone and cartilage. The significant intraoperative trauma causes swelling (which may be asymmetric), which will make your nose look large and wide. This will improve markedly over the first 6 weeks, but will take at least 12-18 months for your nose and surrounding structures to assume their final shape and size. There is no surgery to accelerate healing. You need to be patient...Continue follow up with your surgeon.Best wishes...
