Reviews you can trust, from real people like you.
How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

POD 8
My cast came off POD 6. The DR described parts of the surgery: he broke bones at the bridge, he removed some bone and cartilage to minimize a dorsal hump, he removed some alar cartilage and sutured it to rifle the bulbous tip, and, finally, he thinned the overlying skin.
Most of my swelling is in my nose, both at the bridge and tip.

POD 4
on POD 4, I woke up with pain at my bridge and tip. Swelling of my upper face remains. No overall change in the past 24 hrs.
I'm avoiding my contacts as it is hard to insert them in my puffy eyes.

POST-OP DAY 2
My upper face is even more swollen on post op day 2. I couldn't even open my eyes wide enough to put in my contacts, hahaha.
I have less aching pain of my nose today, but will take Norco if the pain increases. I will continue taking Amoxicillin until I finish the 7 day course ( which I started the day before surgery).
I have applied Arnicare Gel under my eyes, but I don't think it has helped the swelling yet.
I'm using daily saline Nasal spray to keep my nasal mucosa moist and to clean out dried blood.
I continue to apply Neosporin on my columella incision.
