I have uneven nostrils 7 weeks post open rhinoplasty. Is this permanent or should I keep waiting? Is revision necessary? (Photo)

7 weeks is very early in the healing process, however it is often a challenging time for patients who are questioning their results.  Patience is very much required following rhinoplasty as you will experience swelling and perhaps some changes throughout the course of the year.  It does take up to 12 months for all swelling to dissipate.  I would recommend that you share your concerns with your surgeon who also has the most insight into your particular case.Best of luck,Dr. Philip SolomonSolomon Facial Plastic - Toronto, Canada

It's too soon to tell what your final results will be. You have to give yourself some more healing time.  Your nose and surrounding areas are going to be swollen for a while and you should be consulting the surgeon that performed the procedure but give yourself some time before going back in so some of it can subside. You are just at the beginning of the healing process.
Sincerely,
Philip J. Miller, MD, FACS Double Board Certified Facial Plastic Surgeon

Hi, 
Thank you for your post. You are only 7 weeks post op. This is too soon to know what your final results will look like. Your nose will be swollen for a while and things will continue to heal for up to a year. Be patient and give your body time to heal. If you have any questions or concerns I would recommend following up with your surgeon.
