& : 2 months postop. This lovely woman wanted to breathe better and have a subtle, natural change to her nose 😊.
75% of the swelling comes down after a month while the rest takes 12-18 months. To accelerate the swelling resolution AND reduce scarring, I see patients in the office every 1-2 months for steroid injections to the nose, especially the tip, to further help with recovery time and optimize results.
Full views of this patient’s final results are shown. Also notice how the tip stays in the perfect position even when smiling, on BOTH sides.
The overall goal is to always maintain a natural result... Key maneuvers included a component hump reduction, reverse angulated caudal septal trim, tip deprojection. Multiple grafts were used including a columellar strut graft, extended spreader grafts, alar contour grafts, and a mastoid fascia tip graft, to help provide long-term stability and structure to maintain the aesthetic and functional goals...
