Nose job Recovery
In this post I will try to explain the basic nose job recovery process and experience.
The most obvious thing in the nose job recovery period is the swelling. The nose and the face area around it are swollen for the first few days after the surgery. How long depends mostly on the person it self. But it shouldn't be more the 3-5 days.
In most cases there is a bruised appearance and a little sore sensation. This will go away along with the swelling.
In some cases there may be a little swelling left for several months after the surgery.
It is recommended to remain at ease for the first 24 hours. Try to stay in bad for as long as possible. After rhinoplasty it is very important to avoid the sun. This is partly why this particular surgery is more popular during the winter time. Another thing to remember is not to blow the nose for about a week after the rhinoplasty. It is also recommended to avoid banding over for the first week for minimizing the swelling and bleeding.
Yes, bleeding from the nose is another possible side effect and should past in about a day or 2.
A nose job recovery period usually lingers for about one week. Off course, this varies between each person individually.
Your plastic surgeon will give you specific instructions regarding actions and 'Not to do' things that you will have to pay attention to after the rhinoplasty surgery
Most people and plastic surgeons say that it will take up to a year before you can see the final result of the rhinoplasty appearance wise. But I came across some people that were very pleased with the results after only one month, so I guess this is individual too.
Well, I hope this information helps a little in your decision.
It would be great if those of you who already went through their nose job will share their experience in the comments part of this blog.
Good luck with your nose job surgery :-)

Can Rhinoplasty surgery turn bad?
In most cases when you have a plastic surgery it turns out just fine. You get the breast or nose you always wished for and you go back to your normal life in just a few days. But in some cases the plastic surgery doesn't go the way it should.
Dr. Mordcai Blau has patients coming to him after having a plastic surgery done in a small unknown clinic and in some cases abroad. The cheep prices of plastic surgery in countries like Thailand is very tempting to some people and they don’t care to think about the consequences. This doesn’t necessarily means that the surgery will go wrong, but it does mean that if it will, it will be much harder to get it fixed at the original clinic it was performed in.
Rhinoplaty is one of the top surgeries that are made more then once by one patient. An inexperienced plastic surgeon can make mistakes that are sometimes irreversible. The fact that it’s in such a visible place makes it very hard to stay with the unwanted outcome, and so correction rhinoplasty surgery is performed.

Nose job without surgery
I recently read about a none surgical nose job procedure. This procedure is for people that has small corrections needed done on their nose. basically it evolves injecting Botox or restylane to part in the nose that can help in reshaping the nose contour.
Again, non surgical nose job can help only people with small bumps and bulges. It will not help for people that want to reduce the size of their nose. Another thing that should be taken under consideration is that Botox injections are wearing out after a certain time period and if you had a non surgic
al nose job you will probably have to go through more then one.
For now, at least from my point of view, rhinoplasty surgery is still the best option.

Tips for questions and checking you need to do when you decide to go through Rhinoplasty surgery
During your initial consultation, the cosmetic surgeon and patient will discuss what outcome of the surgery is desired, what is realistic for the particular patient, and what to expect during and after surgery.
In addition, the surgeon will advise the patient on the nose surgery procedures, its cost, the possible risks and benefits. The cost for this surgery varies greatly depending on the patient’s physiology and goals.
In different areas of the country, pricing will vary as well as what services, such as anesthesia, are covered in the price. Rhinoplasty is generally not covered by insurance, with the exception of certain breathing difficulties that are a result of a deviated septum. In these cases, a long record of being treated for breathing difficulties by an ENT physician must be proven.
