Asked By:realjourney123 in Uk

I am five weeks post opp. I have a few concerns, I have a slight bump on the left side of my nose (bridge), surgeon has asked me to massage this Area,however it does not feel like swelling it feels like bone, and not showing signs of reduction, 2nd concern is I feel like the anatomy of my face has changed.my cheek area under my eye bags,close to my nose is puffy and looks droopy I have attached a few pics. if its swelling should it not have gone by now? or is it because my tip has been lifted?
