Splint removed after rhinoplasty today - I know it's early (9 days) but It is so uneven.

Asked By:Catsadles in Waverley, MA

I know it's early in the process , but my splint was taken off today and I think my nose is way too lopsided. Is it normal ? Will it even out ? I found the whole experience rougher than I expected so the idea of revision surgery it's awful for me. The left (?) side is so clearly ( to me ) wider and fuller than the other side . I hear others say they are so happy when they first see their new nose but I felt really anxious that I have made a huge mistake
