www.rhinoplastyspecialist.com Rhinoplasty Specialist Dr. Paul S. Nassif, of “Dr. 90210″ and Spalding Drive Plastic Surgery in Beverly Hills, discusses the recovery following a rhinoplasty surgery. The amount of time it takes to recover after rhinoplasty will vary from patient to patient. You’ll likely want to remain in bed for the first day after surgery, but most patients find that they’re up and about within a day or two. Though swelling and bruising can remain visible for three weeks or more, patients are typically able to return to work or school within a week’s time. Sun exposure and any strenuous activity risking injury to the nose will need to be avoided for two to three weeks. Rhinoplasty Recovery Tips Here are a few tips to make your rhinoplasty recovery easier 1. Plan on taking about 10 day to two weeks off of work or school 2. A recliner or pillows to prop yourself up on will help you sleep elevated 3. Make sure the items that youll need as you recover are at waist height, that way you wont have to bend over to pick up items 4. Place a table with the recovery items you need next to your bed, this will help you from having to get up and down when you should be resting 5. Make sure to go grocery shopping to stock up on soft foods like soups, pudding, gelatin and protein drinks 6. Stock up on books, magazines, cds, dvds and other items to help keep you entertained while you are recovering www.spaldingplasticsurgery.com
