okay i had rhinoplasty march 28, 2013 and today is june 8, 2013. i know its going to look a whole lot different in months, but im just wondering, does the thickness of the sides of your nose go down? or is it because my doctor made it this way? like the bridge is thick and pretty flat right now, is that all supposed to go away? i dont want a thick nose and this is bothering me.
