Asked By:han64 in Brackley, J1

I had open rhinoplasty 7 weeks ago to remove a dorsal hump which I hated on side view and also oblique. My surgeon also narrowed my nose to prevent open roof and placed spreder grafts. I am quite happy with my side view which fairly smooth but my front view appear so wide and almost appears wider than pre op. I understand that swelling can take up to a year to go down but the sides of my nose are hard As bone. He did say I had a Very prominent nasal vault. Do I need revision? Will I have to pay
