Still swollen

Hey all! It's been a while since I've updated. I have been doing pretty good BUT the tip of my nose is still swollen!! Some days the bridge/sides of my nose feels great and some days(like today) it hurts. I massage it daily and makes it feel better. I do feel fluids move that have built up. The little hump is still there but I feel with the swelling going down, it gets better. I still have 2 months before I got back to see my doc so a lot can/could change!

Holy cow! I too have a dorsal hump removed. I'm at day 3, and the upturned nose has me FREAKED OUT, but I noticed your side view in a cast looked upturned but that your final side view settled dramatically and looks amazing! Gosh, it gives me some hope!

Don't worry!!! It changes SOOOOO much during recovery. Trust me. I kinda freaked out too! It's still changing and will change more after the welling of the tip goes down! Hang in there!

Has your swelling gone down from the front? Mine is still swollen and I was just wondering.

I'm still super swollen on the tip some days it feels good some days it don't. I still think I have a couple of months of still being swollen and I'm 3 months out.

I think it looks great, and with the small bump you mention, looks super natural and fits your face! Looks like an elegant refined version of your original nose.

Thank you! Have a doc who is 100% perfectionist and don't like that small bump. I'm happy that he wants everything to be perfect!

Bummed..

I had another post op check up today and was expecting another shot in my nose. He decided he didn't want to do that bc he was afraid of the skin on the bridge thinning. I have to go back in 3 months and possibly go back under the knive for him to shave off the bump that has formed on the bridge. :( hopefully a it goes away as time goes by!
