The recovery time after rhinoplasty is not fixed. It usually takes about 1 month for complete swelling and the best results are achieved after 3 months. Differences in the physical fitness of the patients, the skills of the rhinoplasty surgeons, and the post-operative care provided by the patients will all have an impact on the final rhinoplasty recovery time required. However, the recovery experience in the first week after surgery is basically similar.

Dean Zhang Xiaotian of Shengjiaxin said:

The recovery stages are as follows:

First Stage, the evening after prosthetic rhinoplasty surgery. A little bloody fluid flows out of the nostrils of the rhinoplasty incision, or there is blood scab on the edge of the nostrils to form the tip of the nose, and there is mild swelling and pain on the back of the nose and the middle part of the face begins to swell. Pain usually occurs within 24 hours after rhinoplasty surgery. When the pain is unbearable, you can take some analgesics, such as painkillers, ibuprofen, etc.

The second stage is 2-3 days after prosthetic rhinoplasty. The pain in the nose and face has basically disappeared, but the swelling has become more and more obvious, reaching a peak on the 4th day. People with poor coagulation function will have facial bruising, which is more common around the eyes, like panda eyes, and the shape of the external nose is unclear. . Some people may experience conjunctival congestion.
