The rib cartilage rhinoplasty can basically return to normal in about 3 months. The facial swelling is the most severe 2 to 5 days after surgery, the nose will feel painful as well as a dull headache, and there will be swelling and bruising around the eyes that will gradually reduce and disappear with time. Rib cartilage rhinoplasty is a cosmetic plastic surgery procedure that uses autologous rib cartilage grafts as rhinoplasty material to achieve an improved appearance of the nose. Rib rhinoplasty requires two surgeries, first to remove the material and then to perform the rhinoplasty. Within 3 days after rhinoplasty, ice packs can be used to reduce swelling and blood seepage; after 3 days, hot packs can be used to facilitate the absorption and dissipation of edema. If you want the tissue edema to be completely absorbed and dissipated, and return to a more ideal state, not much different from the normal tissue before surgery, you also need to do a good job of postoperative wound care, patients should pay attention to prevent cold, and do not press the nose hard after surgery, so as not to affect the rhinoplasty effect. Some patients will have the possibility of complications, including the occurrence of crookedness, ejection and rupture. But the incidence is not high, as long as you choose a regular hospital and an experienced professional doctor, follow the doctor’s instructions, and review on time.
