What is the recovery time following Rhinoplasty?
Most patients will take a week away from their office or social schedule during the time they scheduled a nose job. The procedure commonly involves changes made to your bone and cartilage underlying the skin. Incisions are common, but discreet, most often located in the nostrils. Following your procedure, a splint and dressing will be worn for a week (average time frame), and swelling and bruising in the nose and eye area should be expected. We provide post operative instruction and make follow up appointments to monitor your healing process.
Is a Nose Job painful?
Most patients would not describe the post-surgery experience as painful, however some discomfort and irritation is common. OTC (over the counter) Tylenol is often enough to provide some relief, as well as ice packs, elevating the head during rest periods, and temporary restrictions of exercise and weight lifting. Many normal activities are common just a few days following the procedure.
How long do results last from Rhinoplasty (Nose Job)?
Most people have a single procedure in their lifetime. If there are medical concerns or unique circumstances, it’s possible that additional surgery would be pursued.
