I had a Rihnoplasty 2 weeks ago and I feel like my tip is too upturned. I understand that it's too early to tell but I'm afraid my nose might stay this way. I am having a lot of emotions and barely want to leave the house and have people I know see me. I just want some answers I feel like I have a piggy nose and I remember mentioning my surgeon that it was something that I did not want at all. My nose was very ethnic and kind of long so to see my nose look like this now is a huge shock.

Answer: Rhinoplasty Recovery You are still early in your recovery period and the nose is expected to be quite swollen at this point.The majority of the swelling will resolve in 3-6 months, and will continue to resolve as your nose heals for up to 1-2 years. You have not reached your final shape as the nose will continue to heal and reduce in size for up to a year. Once it does reach its final shape you may be more pleased with the appearance of your nose.

Answer: Rhinoplasty Healing Typically, the initial swelling after nose surgery subsides within two to three weeks. However, residual swelling, especially in the tip of the nose, can take about a year to resolve as the contour refines. Swelling can also vary through the day, being more prominent in the morning. It is still too early in the healing process to know the final results from your surgery. Try and be patient as your nose will continue to heal. Best of luck to you!
