It's been off for 3 days now and there's an apparent bump on the bridge. I need an opinion on whether this is most likely swelling or not. I thought it was the tip that mainly swells..

Answer: Soft tissue versus bone or cartilage... It is best to check in with your surgeon, but this early on your swelling may indeed be soft tissue swelling that will resolve with time and massage. Your surgeon is your best resource both for an opinion and for post-operative treatment recommendations. Best of luck to you.

Answer: Swelling after Rhinoplasty & Results You need to have patience with your body as it begins to heal. The skin, bone and cartilage are all traumatized during surgery. Inflammation (swelling) is the normal response and will help your nose to heal and look beautiful in the end. If, one year from now, you are unhappy with your nose, then that is the time to think about a revision procedure. Right now, concentrate on other things you like to do and let your nose and under eyes take the time to heal. I hope this helps.
