Each day the swelling goes down. I looked in the mirror this morning and it didn't seem weird. I feel like I wont have't to contour my nose now. I'm really happy it worked out for both of us :)

How soon can you breath out your nose. I'm having it done in december with a facelift?

As soon as I woke up from the anaesthesia I could breath, but shortly after I was congested and couldn't breathe through my nose for about 4 days then it would come and go. After the cast and splint were taken out it was much easier. Having a humidifier help me too

I got them out after 7 days. I did not even feel the surgeon taking them out my nose it was only when he took the stitches out which was the tiniest bit of pain and I just had watery eyes.

So would you say it seemed like the stuffiness was like having a bad cold? Lol

yeah, it honestly just felt I had a bad cold for a week. I only took strong pain killers to help me sleep. Just took Panadol other than that. Maybe I was lucky though. I hardly bruised aswell. I started taking Arnica tablets a week before surgery to prevent swelling so maybe that actually worked.

Feeling like a chipmunk atm. I am hoping my tip and columella will drop slightly as it looks weird with so much nose to mouth gap. My nostrils are still different sizes but better than before. Dr Ha straightened my septum, lifted columella slightly and he said he would reduce tip and push tip down slightly to reduce nostril show. I'm happy with my overall swelling just hoping to see changes with my tip but it's still early so got to be patient I guess :/

I noticed the same thing with mine. Looks like space is too big between nose and mouth. I hope after splint is off and swelling is down it looks more normal.
