Rhinoplasty: Experiences and recovery tips?
in Health ·
Laura James11 said:I wanted to ask—and I know this question probably gets asked a hundred times—how soon can I actually go out in public after surgery? I haven't been able to find a straight answer anywhere. My surgery is scheduled for October 30th, which is right when my semester starts, and I really can't afford to miss two weeks of classes; that's just too much. :/
Also, seeing how they only have a month wait in San Francisco makes me want to switch, because here in Los Angeles I've already been waiting five months, and I still have that much longer to go. My only real worry is whether someone else might do a better job correcting my nose than the doctor here in LA promised (it's crooked, but he said he could also narrow the tip).
I had surgery for a deviated septum. I had my packing removed on day 6, and I was able to head out in public right after that. I had my procedure done in San Francisco.
