How long does alarplasty revision take to recover?
Disease description:
I recently had alarplasty, but wasn't satisfied with the results, so I went back to the hospital yesterday for revision surgery. How long does it take to recover from alarplasty revision?
Nasal alar plastic repair generally takes 3 to 6 months to fully recover. Since the degree of trauma involved in nasal revision surgery varies, the specific recovery time may differ accordingly. Swelling in the skin around the nose usually subsides within one to two weeks after the procedure. During the recovery period, patients should pay attention to their diet and avoid consuming foods that may trigger inflammation or allergic reactions.
