It has been three weeks since my revision surgery, using 3D silicone and autologous costal cartilage. My nose did not look asymmetrical before surgery, but the moment the splint was removed, the crookedness was obvious. The clinic told me to wait until the swelling went down, so I did, but it has now been three weeks. The major swelling is gone, yet it is still crooked, and I’m extremely stressed. Is there really a chance it will return to normal with time? I feel like I’m going crazy...... For reference, the splint was bent toward the right, and the tip bent in that direction.
