So it’s been 5 months since I had my revision rhinoplasty. Although at first I didn’t like how my nose looked it started growing on my when the swelling was going down. That was before I noticed a bump on the nose. On November I got a cortisone shot to try to dissolve it, it’s now January and it’s still there. It feels hard, so hoping it’s not bone or cartilage that moved? I will see Dr Peng next month, February and try to figure out what it is. Also had my surgery in August n I still have a runny nose ONLY from my right nostril. Every time I blow my nose there’s blood ONLY on my right nostril. It’s super annoying. I don’t know if it has anything to do with the bump on the side of the nose. Will have to ask Dr Peng. I’m hoping it’s something that can be fixed. I would hate it to have paid 25,000 to have a constantly runny bloody nostril.

Hi! Any updates on your healing process? Picts? I’ve been considering this doctor but I don’t see that many great reviews on the places I’ve looked. I hope your results are what you expected!

So it’s been a little over 3 months since I had my revision rhinoplasty. I’m really surprised what a difference a month makes! My nose looks good! At two months my nose looked big and uneven but most of had to be swelling because now it looks more even. I was really upset n even regretted having the procedure done the first two months but I’m actually glad I did it. I just needed to be patient. My nose it’s not 100% perfect but I knew that there would be an 85%improvement going in n that is what I got! It takes about two years to see the final result so there’s more swelling left, it can only look better so I’m looking forward to that. But if nothing changes and my nose stays the way it is I’m definitely happy with the results.

It’s been two months since my revision rhinoplasty. My nose thinned out a little bit but it’s still pretty much huge. Theres no definition to the tip, it’s all round. There’s no symmetry from the sides, one side has a dent to it(on my left). I know that revision rhinoplasties take longer to heal so I’m just hoping it’s all the swelling that is making the tip look round and big. I’m trying to be optimistic and I’m hoping it will look better once it’s completely healed. As of right now I hate it. I feel it doesn’t go with my face. It’s so big makes me look older and manly.
