You may also be given a choice of operations. One procedure is more invasive than another and although it may produce dramatic resultsrepparttar 137709 recuperative time is much longer. Sometimes incisions are made onrepparttar 137710 outside rims ofrepparttar 137711 nostrils only. Other operations involve operating fromrepparttar 137712 inside only (therefore not leaving any scars) or sometimes a combination of both techniques

Nose jobs are also almost always performed under general anesthesia and painkillers and anti-inflammatory medications are also given to patients to reduce pain and swelling. The side effects of general anesthesia, including such symptoms as memory loss, fogginess and fatigue can last upwards of three months so make sure you have a schedule that can accommodate these physical setback should they occur.

Depending on what procedures you have had you can recovery time of at least a month and in many cases up to three or four months. You may not be able to attend work or exercise for three months, as that is how long you may seem swollen. Be prepared for some discomfort and restricted movement.
