Cast just taken off after rhinoplasty and nose is uneven and crooked. Will the end result look like this? (Photo)

Asked By:hks90 in Vancouver, BC

I am 7 days post rhinoplasty and just had my cast taken off. My nose is noticeably uneven and looks crooked. I am aware that my nose will swell more in a couple days, but I didn’t think it would look like this right when the cast was removed. I hear others talk about the way their nose looks once the cast is taken off is close to what the final result will be. I am really unhappy with how it looks. Is this normal?
