Q: I had incisional double eyelid + epicanthoplasty + rhinoplasty 2 weeks ago. Eyes used to look oriental but now no one recognizes me and I feel bad. What can be done to make eyes more recognizable to others? Nose tip (septal cartilage) too projected and pointy, would it be resolved over time or even more refined?
A: Your eyes will begin to look more natural over the first 3-6 months as the swelling resolves and the height of the crease descends.
The majority of the swelling in your nose will also resolve in the first 3-6 months. It’s not surprising for the bridge to look too high 2 weeks after surgery. Give yourself appropriate time to heal before becoming too concerned.
