Girin Question & Answer - After rhinoplasty, how long does it takes to recover?

Question - After rhinoplasty, how long does it takes to recover?
Answer - There is no exact recovery period after procedure, because each of patient has different condition, characteristic and etc.
However, generally recovery period is follow;

  1. Post-Operative 1 day - Apply a sprint and taping on surgical area
  2. Post-Operative 2 days (or 3 days) - Swelling gets worse & Remove sprint
  3. Post-Operative 5 days - Stitch out 
  4. Post-Operative 7 days - Deswelling starts & Remove taping

















Patient can get new shape of nose after 6 months (If it takes long, could take 1 year)
During recovery period, nose shape looks uneven temporary. The reason is that the part of recovery is different.
