I am currently almost 6 weeks post rhinoplasty/septoplasty. My surgeon re-did my tip using my cartilage and placed cartilage in other areas due to my "thin tissue". He shaved the hump and straightened my septum as well. I'm not happy with the front view of my nose and tip. It's extremely wider and this was not discussed as my desired result at all. Is this just swelling? He says I still have quite a bit of swelling. I'm so unhappy right now.
