Uneven swelling 6 months post-op rhinoplasty or something else? (Photo)
January 8, 2023
Asked By:Dazzling333770 in Sydney, New South Wales, Australia
I had my rhinoplasty in June 2022. Initially about 1-2 months after my nose looked super cute and small, however at about the 5 month mark I wasn’t seeing anymore changes and it looked like my nose was more swollen. It looked like my nose was crooked so I went in to get steroid injections. Initially this really helped however now I feel like it’s back to looking crooked (and one side is more carved out than the other. Is this just uneven swelling (my nose wasn’t crooked before the surgery)??
