Asked By:Michelley.N in Toronto, ON

Hello, I recently had Rhinoplasty 12 days ago. I am fully aware I am still in the healing process. My tip is currently VERY high and I hate the "piggy" look. I expressed my dislike for the "piggy" look before going into surgery so I do have faith it will drop while healing. Is there anything I can do or eat to speed up the tip dropping? I have been sleeping upright every night Keeping my nose taped up all the time I've been sleeping a lot Taking arnicaire pills everyday
