What Are the Negative Effects of Flying 9 Days After Revision Rhinoplasty?

September 26, 2011
Asked By:theboyzmom in Florida

I have heard that one could develop a nosebleed and should bring Afrin aboard to stop it. Other info has mentioned prespraying your nose with Afrin before boarding. Would it be smart to ice during the flight? Is the cabin pressure detrimental to the revision results? I am already more swollen than a regular rhino, due to necessary grafts and an open procedure, but I DO need to return home, lol! I just want to travel the five hours in the safest way possible without messing the results.
