The recovery time after rhinoplasty is not fixed, generally about 1 month to completely reduce swelling, and the best effect is achieved after 3 months. Because of the differences in the physical quality of beauty seekers, the skills of rhinoplasty doctors and the differences in postoperative care of beauty seekers, the final recovery time of rhinoplasty will be affected. However, the recovery experience in the first week after operation is basically similar, and the recovery stages are as follows:

The first stage, the night after the prosthetic rhinoplasty. There is a little bloody liquid flowing out of the nostrils during rhinoplasty incision, or scabs form the tip of the nose at the edge of the nostrils, with slight swelling and pain on the back of the nose and swelling in the middle of the face. Pain usually occurs within 24 hours after rhinoplasty. When the pain is unbearable, you can take some analgesic drugs, such as painkillers and ibuprofen.

The second stage, 2-3 days after rhinoplasty. The pain of nose and face basically disappeared, but the swelling became more and more obvious, reaching the peak on the fourth day. People with poor coagulation function will have facial congestion, which is more common around the eyes. Like panda eyes, the outline of the external nose is not clear. Some people may be accompanied by conjunctival congestion.

The third stage, 4-6 days after rhinoplasty. The swelling gradually subsided, and the recovery process of prosthetic rhinoplasty was that the color of the blood stasis area around the eyes gradually turned from red to yellow, and there was still tenderness at the tip and back of the nose. If there is conjunctival blood stasis, the blood stasis basically disappears at this stage.

The fourth stage, 7 days after rhinoplasty. The facial blood stasis is absorbed, but the nose shape is unnatural, the skin on the back and tip of the nose is shiny, and the wound has completely healed without pain.

Tip: Just after surgery, before swelling up, you can look in the mirror and see what your nose has become. At this time, the nose shape is more realistic; When swelling masks its original shape, the nose may look ugly or even scary. But you don't have to be afraid. This is a normal surgical reaction. Almost everyone has to go through this process. This is not inflammation, but a normal tissue reaction.
