During the first two to three days after Rhinoplasty surgery, the face will feel puffy, the nose may ache, and you may experience a dull headache. You should plan on resting with your head elevated for the first couple of days. There will be swelling and bruising around the eyes, reaching a peak after four days. Some patients also get very swollen lips and cheeks including difficulty smiling. All these symptoms will subside within 3 weeks of the nose procedure.

Rhinoplasty healing is divided in 2 phases. The initial surgical recovery outlined above followed by a slow process of healing and scar modulation that can take up to 2 years in some patients.

How long does it take to see shape after nose job?

After a nose job (rhinoplasty), initial swelling typically subsides within a few weeks, allowing some shape to become visible. However, it can take several months to a year for the final results to fully emerge, as the nose continues to heal and refine over time. Individual recovery times may vary based on factors like the complexity of the surgery and personal healing rates. Regular follow-ups with your surgeon can help monitor progress during this period.
