It is usual for this to happen, we shall limit the contents of this answer to solely discussing the underlying causes:
- Swelling, a severed anterior nasal spine, a cut labii superioris or anterior nasalis muscle, or a combination of these events.
- Interference with the upper lip's movement and swelling of the upper lip are quite common post-rhinoplasty and can resolve after a short period.
- The nasal tip could have been raised as well.

Answered on 23rd May '24
Changes in the length of the philtrum (the area between nose and upper lip) may follow rhinoplasty, as it is a result of modifying nasal structure. Although rhinoplasty concerns the nose, this operation may affect neighboring face lines. This largely depends on the techniques that are used, individual anatomy and methods of healing. Your surgeon can help you understand whether the observed changes are viewed as normal, offer comfort or advise on further revision based on your overall situations.

Hi, my chest are diff size
Female | 28
It is not rare that individuals have somewhat unequal sizes of the chest. Sometimes, it may be more prominent but, doesn't bother people much; if anything, clothing usually hides this fact well enough. If there is no pain or other symptoms then there’s probably nothing to worry about either–the most important thing is how you feel. If an increase in size comes with pain, shortness of breath or a feeling of something being wrong then visit a doctor for some advice.

Blocked nose 6 months after rhinoplasty, what to do?
Female | 35
Experiencing a blocked nose six months after rhinoplasty can be normal in some cases, but it's essential to consult with your surgeon for a proper evaluation. While the majority of swelling and healing typically occur within the first few months following rhinoplasty, it's possible for residual swelling to persist for a longer period, especially in the nasal passages. Residual swelling, Scar tissue formation, Nasal valve collapse can be the reasons for blocked nose at this stage.
If you're experiencing a blocked nose six months after rhinoplasty, it's important to consult with your surgeon or an otolaryngologist (ear, nose, and throat specialist) to determine the cause and appropriate course of action. They will be able to evaluate your situation and provide you with personalized advice based on your specific circumstances. In the meantime, here are a few general suggestions that may help:
- Follow post-operative instructions: Review the instructions provided by your surgeon after the rhinoplasty and ensure that you are following them correctly. This may include nasal sprays, saline rinses, or other prescribed medications.
- Nasal irrigation: Consider using a saline nasal rinse or a neti pot to help flush out any mucus or debris from your nasal passages. This can help alleviate congestion and keep your nose clear.
- Humidify the air: Dry air can exacerbate nasal congestion. Using a humidifier in your living space or bedroom can add moisture to the air, reducing the likelihood of a blocked nose.
- Avoid irritants: Minimize exposure to irritants such as cigarette smoke, strong chemical odors, and pollutants. These can further inflame the nasal passages and contribute to congestion.
- Elevate your head during sleep: Keeping your head elevated while sleeping can help reduce nasal congestion. Try using an extra pillow or consider using a wedge pillow specifically designed for this purpose.
- Avoid blowing your nose forcefully: Blowing your nose too hard can potentially disrupt the healing process and worsen congestion. Instead, gently blow your nose with one nostril at a time or use a saline nasal spray to help clear your nasal passages.
Remember, these are general suggestions, and it's essential to seek professional medical advice for an accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment.

When can i sleep on my back after bbl?
Female | 43
After a BBL, you should not sleep face down on your back for several weeks in order to avoid pressure on the newly transplanted fat. Surgeons usually advise to sleep on your side or use a donut pillow, which minimizes the pressure against buttocks during early recovery. Follow your surgeon’s specific post-operative instructions and individual recovery progress. It is important to follow your surgeon’s advice in order for you to get the desired result with minimal risks of complications.

Male | 26
Removing the penis head, also called circumcision is surgery that cuts off the foreskin tip covering. It's usually done for cultural, faith, or health reasons. Some think it aids hygiene, cuts infection risk, and lowers disease odds. It's seen as safe when experts do it properly and cleanly. But like any op, dangers exist: bleeding, infections, feeling changes. So, discuss with a plastic surgeon to grasp the prospective perks and dangers before deciding.

Greetings sir my daughter is four years old she was some what black with your suggestion I want her for skin whitening treatment which one is permanent for her chemical peel or Laser treatment please suggest me sir
Female | 4
Neither of these treatments is recommended for children under the age of 18. Chemical peels and laser treatments are not permanent skin whitening treatments. These treatments can help to reduce the appearance of dark spots, but they will not permanently lighten the skin.

How can I reduce my breast I have a big breast and small buttocks
Female | 17
I would recommend for you to visit a plastic surgeon who specializes in breast reduction surgery. This technique includes removal of too much breast tissue and reshaping the rest to create a more balanced figure. But it has to be mentioned that any operation carries the risk of complications and side effects. Hence the discussion on the pros and cons of the breast reduction surgery should be made with a professional specialist before making a final decision.

How to get rid of strawberry legs?
Strawberry legs generally caused by irritation of the hair follicles specially after waxing so first thing is adopting laser hair removal over waxing that will permanently solve the problem. Secondly If you want to try waxing then use soft wax and also apply coconut oil post waxing. Use Antiseptic like Cetrimide before waxing and mild topical steroids or moderately potent steroids can be applied after waxing process for 2-3 days so that it won't give rise to strawberry legs

I did eye bag removal surgery my one eye is still small the other one is open my one eye still num and wired felling it's been 17 days will it be OK
Female | 53
It's common to have concerns about post-surgery changes with eye bag removal. The eyes may appear different initially. Feeling numb or odd sensations in one eye after 17 days is normal. This occurs due to swelling or nerve responses. Be patient as it will likely improve over time. However, if you have persistent worries, consult your plastic surgeon for guidance.

Answered on 23rd May '24
Dr. Raajshri Gupta
I was born with a very thick face and chin and have had it all my life despite never being overweight and living a healthy life. Now I'm 16 years old and have a slimmer face and chin, but I'm still quite fat in those places. I would be very grateful if someone could tell me what causes this and if there is any effective way to remove it. I can also add that I was late into puberty with growth.
Male | 16
Puberty after the age of sixteen combined with an insult to your hormones can cause fat to be collected in the body and face. Apart from this, a plastic surgeon might also inform the patient about options for losing weight in the targeted areas, however, before getting any such procedure it has to be ascertained that he or she doesn't have any underlying medical conditions.
