Question:
The right side of my nose looks much more swollen than the left size at 8 weeks post op. I had some slight asymmetry of my tip prior to surgery but now it looks even worse. Is this normal and will the swelling continue to fade so that my nose looks symmetrical? How long should this take?
Answer:
This is very normal .The swelling often decreases at a different rate on each side causing them to look asymmetric or exaggerate previously existing asymmetries. It may take up to six months for this to even out.
