Will Swelling Go Down a Lot Between 2-4 Months Post Rhinoplasty?

Your nose will still change a lot over the next six months or so. It is common for the middle third and tip to appear quite a bit wider at this point compared to where it will eventually settle once your nose has completely healed after your rhinoplasty. 

No worries at 2 or even 4 months post-op.  What we see as plastic surgeons is that swelling increases and decreased over the first year or so.  You may able to feel the swelling as a "spongy" feel to the area.  In general, nasal swelling resolves from top to bottom, so that the tip is the last area to remain swollen.  You will see improvement over at least 12 months;  most of the improvement is in the first 6-9 months.  So, not to worry, and check with your surgeon!  Best of luck.

While a lot of the swelling after rhinoplasty subsides in the first two weeks, the swelling will continue to subside gradually over the next year.  The skin acts like a shink wrap that gradually tightens over the revised cartilage structure underneath. This occurs over the course of a year.  Simply take a picture now and take the same picture again in one year and you will notice a definite difference.  Be sure to discuss your concerns with your surgeon.  In some cases a steroid injection is needed to help with supratip swelling.
