Skin care after rhinoplasty?

Hello and thank you for your question.  My best advice is to discuss this with your surgeon.  There is some variation in recommendations amongst surgeons after rhinoplasty and some of it depends on the specifics of the procedure.  In general, after rhinoplasty, patients wear a nasal splint for 1 week.  Once the splint is removed, the face and nose can be gently washed with a gentle face wash.  At 7-10 days, you can return to using your normal facial products with care to not rub the nose firmly.  I would not do a firm exfoliation until about 4 weeks. 

 The cast will be applied across the nose for one week, and there be visible bruising and swelling for two weeks. Any type of skincare products are normally using can  be applied to the nasal skin afterwards. Exfoliation should Not be performed for at least a month.
