Asked By:erickar_ypil in philippines

i have undergone for alarplasty 1 month ago last july 21 2012 and after 9 days i applied make-up but b4 applying make-up i used dermatix ultra anti scar which was being advised by my surgeon but i was amazed after 1 month the swollen is still there i admit aside from make-up i smoke moderately and i went to swimming in spring (not salty water) and exposed to sunlight after 4 weeks with out any sunblock.. so could this affet the healing process?? and could alter the position of the nosejob??
