Can I Scratch the Dead Skin on my Nose off I Month After Rhinoplasty

Be gentle, but yes you can wash your face even with a light exfoliator to help remove some of the flaking skin.

After having a cast on your nose for about a week it's quite common for there to be an increased amount of skin sloughing (flaking of dead skin) once the cast is removed. It is usually okay for you to wash your nose and face like normal with a washcloth after surgery but you can certainly check with your surgeon in case there are specific issues in your case that would limit this.

Hi,

I would not recommend scratching or putting any type of pressure on your tip at this time. You should ask your surgeon for advice as he is the only one who knows what was done to your nose. You don't want to damage any type of tip reconstruction you may have had. Best wishes, Dr. H
