Uneven Nostrils Please Help 2 Months Post Op? (photo)

This early after rhinoplasty, it is premature to be concerned about the final result.   The swelling is going to be very prominent at this early stage.  I would follow with your surgeon.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                      Kenneth Hughes, MD

Two months after rhinoplasty especially if there is graft material placed generally is associated with persistent swelling. This should resolve before you make a pronouncement about the appearance of your nose.

based on your photos you had an open approach as well as alar base reduction or alarplasty. It is still early and I do think it is probably wise to wait a total of six months before doing anything. You've had multiple incisions at the natural venous and lymphatic outflow for your nose. Steroid injection may also be helpful if this is not been performed yet.

don't be too discouraged yet. Keep close contact with your surgeon.
