Is this uneven swelling, will the front of my columella even out and drop a bit within time? (photos
post op swelling
Feb 7, 2019
4 weeks is incredibly early after a rhinoplasty. Based on your photos there is a considerable amount of swelling and this can alter structures that may have been left alone.
It is incredibly difficult to be patient after a rhinoplasty for the final results, but it can oftentimes take up to a year for the nose to settle down. Make sure to continue with icing and regular follow up visits with your surgeon.
1 week rhinoplasty : putting pressure on the nose to make it straight, what are you thoughts?

Dec 21, 2018
There can be a tremendous amount of swelling after a rhinoplasty, especially after the cast is removed. Unfortunately, even the nose does not swell the same on one side as it can on the other and asymmetry during the healing period is incredibly common. Taping is a very common and effective technique to encourage the swelling to stay to a minimum as prolonged swelling leads to scar tissue if not adequately addressed. This is why so many rhinoplasty surgeons insist on icing as much as…
Would it be possible to get the old nose tip back?

Dec 21, 2018
I’m sorry that you are unhappy with your result from your surgery. Healing from any procedure is an emotional experience and can be hard to navigate.
It’s difficult to give someone back their “old nose”, exactly the way it was before as cartilage has been reshaped and in some cases removed entirely. If you are trying to soften the appearance of the tip of your nose you will likely require cartilage and soft tissue grafting from your ear and/or temporalis fascia to build the tip back up…
Is my nose tip too high after rhinoplasty? 3.5 months post-op
rotated nasal tip
Dec 14, 2018
A columellar strut graft can come down a bit more as it is not secured to your septal cartilage. You do have thicker nasal skin which holds onto swelling longer than someone with thinner skin. You’re still fairly early in the post op period and I would recommend giving your nose the time to heal. Remember, it takes up to a year sometimes even a year a half to completely heal from a rhinoplasty.
Possible to get protruding columella and infratip after tip being over shortened? What cartilage is
protruding infratip and columella

The changes to your nose are visible, but a revision rhinoplasty will not guarantee a return of your original nose. From your pictures I do not see a mid-columellar incision, but these frequently heal so well they are almost invisible post operatively. You could have cartilage grafts placed in the desired area, but I would say rib would not be necessary for these changes. If you still have nasal septal cartilage in place, you could use this or your ear cartilage. If you decide to…
When will my alar crease be evident after rhinoplasty?

The are around the tip of the nose can hold on to post operative swelling for a frustratingly long time. While the initial healing and majority of swelling after a rhinoplasty calms down at a reasonable pace, the full results can take from one to one and a half years depending on amount of surgery, skin thickness, and if it was a revision or not. The key is to be patient with the healing process! You’ve made it through the hard part already!
