Weeks 2-3
Most patients return to work if job isn’t physically demanding. Bruising fades significantly and breathing improves. Major swelling subsides, revealing early changes in nose appearance. Social activities can resume with care.
Months 1-3
Gradual return to regular activities including exercise. Most swelling resolved, nose shape becoming clearer. Sensation returns to nasal tip. Protection from sun exposure remains important.
Long-term Results
Final nose shape settles over 12+ months. Results look natural and last permanently. Improved facial harmony and, if applicable, better breathing function. Patient satisfaction rates extremely high with board-certified surgeons.
