After i get my surgery will i be able to drive to pick up my kids from school? also how long will it take for my nose to recover and heal? when will i be able to go to a party and look normal?
Answer: Rhinoplasty recovery Hello! I tell my patients to plan for one week of downtime. If you need narcotics, you should not be driving and you don't want to be in pain because planning was not appropriate! Most patients look good when the cast comes off at one week but bruising and swelling can persist for a couple weeks. I would recommend 3-4 weeks before big social events, just in case. good luck!

Answer: nose job surgery It's important you have help with your two young children for the first few days after the procedure. Anticipate a cast applied across the bridge in the nose for one week, and visible bruising and swelling for up to two weeks. It is possible to drive your kids to and from school, but not the day of the surgery. Full healing on the nose job is one year to allow all of the swelling to subside. Most patients are able to get back into normal social activities and exercise after two weeks. For more information about nasal surgery, please see the link and the video below

Answer: We typically recommend house rest for the first week following rhinoplasty surgery. You may require help picking up your kids from school during the first week postoperative rhinoplasty surgery. With artful concealer, most patients may resume normal social activities around one week postoperative, and unrestricted physical activity may be resumed 21 days postoperative. The complete healing process is a year or longer. Hope this helps you. Dr Joseph

Answer: Rhinoplasty Hello and thank you for your question. I advise patients to take off one week from work after surgery. Bruising should be resolved by one week. Make sure you specifically look at before and after

Answer: Recovery from Rhinoplasty Recovery after rhinoplasty varies between individuals. After rhinoplasty it is possible to have some swelling around your eyes. It this occurs and your field of vision is slightly decreased due to the swelling please do not drive or perform hazardous activities until this swelling is reduced. This is uncommon but as it can occur please consider the possibility.
