Introduction
In general, it takes about 1 to 3 months to recover naturally after prosthetic rhinoplasty, with specific recovery time varying from person to person. Individuals with faster metabolism have quicker cell renewal and stronger tissue repair capabilities, enabling more rapid absorption of bruising and swelling in the surgical area and faster resolution of inflammatory responses. As a result, they may achieve a relatively natural appearance within 1 to 2 months after surgery.

In general, it takes about 1 to 3 months to recover naturally after rhinoplasty with implants, and the exact time varies from person to person. Individuals with faster metabolism have quicker cell renewal and stronger tissue repair capabilities, enabling faster absorption of bruising and swelling at the surgical site and more rapid resolution of inflammatory responses. As a result, they may achieve a relatively natural appearance within 1 to 2 months post-surgery. Those with slower metabolism require a longer recovery period, as their bodies respond to and repair surgical trauma more slowly. It may take them 2 to 3 months or even longer for the nose to regain a natural look, due to slower absorption of edema fluid and slower metabolism of inflammatory mediators, which in turn delays tissue healing and remodeling. It is recommended to visit a reputable hospital and have the procedure performed by an experienced doctor to effectively reduce the risk of complications.

Nasal Implant Surgery

Example Image

Principle

Implants are inserted into the nasal area to elevate the external nose, thereby improving its shape.

Reference Price

5,000–20,000 CNY per session

Risks

1. Foreign body rejection

2. Implant displacement

3. Skin swelling

Duration

1–3 months

After rhinoplasty, it is important to keep the wound clean and hygienic. Ensuring adequate sleep promotes blood circulation and helps reduce swelling. A light diet is recommended, avoiding spicy or irritating foods such as onions, chili peppers, garlic chives, and alcohol, which may hinder wound healing.
