mswendie Posted February 13, 2017 Posted February 13, 2017 Hi everyone! I just want to get your suggestions regarding healing after a nose job. How does one make sure that you heal without a hitch? I am about to go into surgery in just a few weeks, and I am very much apprehensive about the healing process and how it might turn out. Please advise, especially those who have gone through the procedure.
lovelypeach Posted February 13, 2017 Posted February 13, 2017 You follow a self care routine, nurses will explain how to take care of your nose And to speed up the process, the key is to minimize swelling
cindy-0217 Posted February 13, 2017 Posted February 13, 2017 Also take some vitamin c it help with the healing process
kathy2406 Posted February 13, 2017 Posted February 13, 2017 My friend said that it takes a good 3~6 months for swelling to subdue fully
d-o-abi Posted February 14, 2017 Posted February 14, 2017 You have to be careful at least 6 months for the last result. Don't work out a lot like gym, etc. You must do ice pack in your around nose for 2~3days after surgery for my experience. Nothing special, your nurses will explain you and just do what she say to you. I hope you success for your surgery
trini707 Posted February 14, 2017 Posted February 14, 2017 I took bromelain ampoules and arnica cream that I bought in a Korean pharmacy. That really helped my swelling go down, but my nose didn't look great until day 11/12. I was **really** shocked when the cast was taken off on day 6, but it gets a lot better! (Had a bit of a cry on day 7 though, my nose looked huge). 2 weeks after, my nose looked fine. It's now less than 2 months after surgery and I really love it. Also the nurses will show you how to clean your nose after surgery- it's important ^^ I got scolded by the nurses for not doing it well because I thought I had to clean all the way inside- turns out it's just around the stitches.
