Question

Manish H. Shah, MD, FACS · Answer

Hello,Thanks for your question. At 5 weeks, your nose appears to be over-rotated. Without derotating it, lowering the bridge height further, and increasing the tip projection appropriately, you won't get a "slope". Unfortunately, you will have to wait up to a year for revision rhinoplasty. I would recommend that you consult with your surgeon about revision rhinoplasty surgery. If you aren't sure that your surgeon can provide the results you seek, then speak with a revision rhinoplasty specialist.Good luck,Dr. Shah

You will have swelling still and this includes over your bridge. 5 weeks is early after a rhinoplasty. I would expect your bridge to lower with time so you may get the slope you want. Please wait for a year to see your final result.

Robert H. Hunsaker, MD · Answer

At only one month, you still have swelling. Reevaluate it in 6-8 months. You may well be satisfied. If not, ask for more change.
