Title: Nose job recovery time ?
Post by: tisha on December 09, 2007, 06:50:24 PM
 I really want to get my nose done. I hate it. Its not really big or anything. I just dont like the shape. Never have. So what might be the average recovery time for this ? I just want to get as much info as possible . Not only from the doctors but from girls in the real word.
                             
                                                           Thanks !

It depends on skin thickness.
Males usually have thicker skins and thus have longer
recovery. If you have thin skin because you've been out of the sun
you can probably expect 2 weeks of bad swelling and by 4 weeks you are presentable, the bridge is usually the first to stop swelling except if you had to break it. By 4 months the tip should be somewhat close to your final size with some hardness remaining, by 12 months, for most you have the final result.
