I'm 4 weeks post-open rhinoplasty { "true thick skin" } & this rings true for me. When the cast came off, my nose looked HUGE. It was a discoloured potato for the first few days, but with the help of tape, the swelling dramatically subsided within the week. Now 4 weeks in, it certainly feels & looks like 90% of the swelling has subsided. I know this still isn't the end result, but I am already getting a very good idea of how it's going to look, & my nose feels much, much stronger. If you have thick skin, you definitely want to tape & keep the tape on for as long as you can. Take daily walks,. Gently exfoliate. Sleep slightly upright.
You are amazingly good at explaining.. Thanks! You changed my life.. I was insecure with my bulbous nose for most of my 28 years of life.. Was hesitant.. N saw videos like this which gave me courage to take the step
I have had three rhinoplasties and none of them have been successful in correcting my extreme bulbous tip.I’ve thrown thousands of dollars down the drain and put my body through so much for nothing ;( I feel like I’m never gonna get the results I am wishing for.Part of me wants to keep exploring options but yet part of me feels I’ve already had to many surgeries and I don’t wanna waste anymore money! I’m tired of this battle and it taking over my life
