Hey Thomas Alvarez5, check your inbox, you've got a private message.

Oh man, a coma? Who was it with?? Did they have some kind of major surgery?

It really does fade the bruising...
Honestly, most of it is just in your head. You start worrying that everyone is staring at you, but they aren't looking at all.
I think after three weeks, you’ll get used to the fact that the nose shape is constantly shifting, but you're the only one who notices it.🙂
In the morning it looks swollen, then it settles during the day, then it looks thicker or you see a bump, then it looks wider or narrower...
Then I ask my mom—who tells me it looks exactly the same as always—and that's when it hits me how "obsessed" we are with this nose.
But hey, that's exactly why we went under the knife in the first place, right? Because we notice every tiny detail.

Exactly. No one ever pointed out my nose to me, but I just know a slightly smaller profile would suit my face better... 🙂 My only fear now is that it ends up looking worse. I'm not a fan of small, upturned noses; I just want something more "refined," if you know what I mean.🙂

So, we're talking about the open procedure here? How long would it be before I could actually head out and just use some makeup to hide the bruising? I read somewhere that it takes about six months to reach the final result, but what I really want to know is how soon I can be out in public without the swelling being super obvious... I'm not looking for a massive transformation, and I definitely don't want people noticing I've had work done.
btw, thanks a ton for the answer. 🙂

Hey, I’m curious if anyone here knows how this works... what does the process look like for a nose job when there isn't actually a bump? It's more about the profile—the bridge area right under the eyes feels too high, and the tip is just too wide and lacks definition.
Unfortunately, I'm not quite sure how to put it into technical terms...
