swelling is still there. I've been told to keep patience but i just cant seem to. my nose doesnt look anything like the first couple of days after my surgery. doctor says it should start to look better every day that passes by and that the swelling should go down but it looks exactly the same .. "/ im running out of patience..

I'm so sorry you're upset abt your nose. I don't understand how a nose can change so much. I had the same problem too. Has yours improved?

its been my 3rd day using tapes

Tapes have been helping my swelling go down in my nose but my eyes are beginning to receive the swelling my nose is more oily but its keeping the swelling on the nose down during the day my nose will still have swelling but not as drastically as before which is good here are some pictures

What a perfect lil' nose! I really love how the tip looks.
thank you hopefully when the swelling goes down it will look like that again :)
I like how straight your bridge is. Very natural!
thanks :)

tapes are your bestfriend (in some cases)

i began to use tapes at night before i go to sleep, not just regular tape but tape designed for the skin. the reason i use these tapes is because when you sleep is when your face swells up the most and the tapes helps the swelling stay down if that is one of your main concerns

Thank you for sharing your experience on RealSelf! So those photos are all post op?

yes they are

Got it! Thanks for clarifying! Please keep us posted as the swelling goes down more and more.

Thanks for sharing. I am a bit confused about the first picture containing two images. Is the one to the right post op or before the surgery?
yes its 3 months and 2 weeks after surgery with severe swelling
