How long does swelling last after septorhinoplasty?

A majority of swelling after rhinoplasty resolves within three months.  Residual swelling and healing after rhinoplasty can take up to 12 months.  You should not critque your results for at least 6 months.  Regarding the "blue" suture, I would suggest following up with your operating surgeon to make sure that does not need to be removed.  Good Luck

Everyone is different.And so swelling will vary between people even if the exact surgery was performed.Obviously the bigger the surgery the longer the recovery.I would wait no less than  3 months to evaluate asymmetry and prolonged swelling.Good luck.

In general, 70% of the swelling resolves after the first 3 months and the remainder goes down over time. The nose will continue to change as you heal, and the final result may not be evident for 18-24 months after surgery. I would recommend following up with your surgeon regarding any specific concerns, as he/she knows the details of your surgery. I hope this helps, and I wish you the best of luck. 

Swelling after septorhinoplasty can take 6-12 months to completely resolve, so it is not at all unusual to still have some swelling 5 weeks after surgery.  You mentioned a blue stitch in your nose and I would check with your surgeon about that issue.  A blue stitch could be a permanent suture that sometimes needs to be removed.  

It takes 6-12 months for all the swelling to subside after rhinoseptoplasty. Be patient.  A blue suture likely needs to be removed by your surgeon. Hang in there and be sure to voice all concerns with your surgeon. I know how you feel as I have had a rhinoseptoplasty and it's hard to not look at your nose with a magnifying glass every time you look in the mirror. Good luck!
