This surgery can be combined with other surgical procedures such as chin augmentation to enhance the aesthetic results or liposuction. |
The first day after surgery there will be typically be some swelling of the face. Patients should stay (horizontal) in bed with their heads elevated for at least 1 day after surgery. Your nose will most likely hurt for a short time, this is normal. Your surgeon will prescribe medication to relieve any pain or discomfort. Swelling and bruising around the eyes and nose will increase for a few days after surgery, but this will usually begin to subside the third or fourth day. Strenuous activities are not recommended for two to three weeks after your procedure.
