after a rhinoplasty, how long will it take before the swelling goes down?

Answer 1

Hi, I guess how long is a piece of string?
It's a case of horses for courses every person is different from what I have observed and treated ,anywhere from 2 weeks to 6 weeks plus.
Of course this will depend on to what extent rhinoplasty operation was needed, some are easy some more complicated, also your re-cooperative powers play a major part. cheers ♥

Answer 2

My cast was removed on the 7th day. the swelling moved down and I could actually feel it throb and move south until the area between my top lip and nose was swollen and felt stiff.

Some patients will lose their sense of smell, temporarily. I did for a short time, but only regained half of my sense of smell after several months. It took about 9 months to get my full sense of smell back (I have an EXTREMELY keen sense of smell, I have an uncanny ability of being able to differentiate hundreds of smells one after the other. I guess that is my little gift. Your nose may be swollen and for up to a year. Don’t laugh at this next one, but the scar tissue may heal in a way that may cause a whistling sound to be heard when you breathe in and out. Either that or if your tip or nasal structure was made too thin it can cause this as well as difficulty breathing form the nose.

Answer 3

that depends entirely on the extent of the work done. Also, each of us heals at a unique rate, so there is no way to say exactly just how long anyone will take for swelling to go down and healing to take place. Can be anywhere from six days to six months.

Rhinoplasty surgery is very safe nowadays. My cousin got her breast reduction, tummy tuck and facelift surgery in India by the company called Tour2india4health Consultants .The Price for the surgery she paid in India was very less. She paid 30% of the cost she was quoted in America.

Tour2india4health Consultants is very famous in India. They arrange cosmetic and plastic surgery for foreigners in India. I read a lot about them in the Newspapers and about their patient stories. They arrange financing for USA, Canadian, UK and other international patients who plan to have surgery abroad for low price, as the breast reduction, tummy tuck, facelift and other cosmetic surgery is not covered by insurance. They also have photos pasted of their International patients. You can checkout their website. There are huge cost savings. As a doctor I personally believe that surgery can be easily handled in India, as the quality of healthcare available In India is simply best in the world. The surgeons are USA/UK trained and facilities are 5 star.
