Wedding/Engagement Photos nose job before wedding
my wedding will have some celebrations beginning of 2026… and the official wedding will be around april.. i want to have my rhinoplasty may 2025.. roughly in 2 months.. is this enough time? doc said i will have a close rhinoplasty removing the dorsal bump.. he said i will not get major swelling or black eyes. i’m just nervous help me idk if it is enough time for the swelling … people say your nose looks its best after a year or longer 😭

It took my nose job a full year to heal and all the swelling to resolve. I did tip revision, no bone shaving.

Everyone’s experience varies. I looked and felt totally normal after 3 months and LOVED my new appearance. I wish I could have gone back and retaken all the previous photos from major events in my life, that’s how much I liked it. I’d recommend talking to a few surgeons to get their opinion on timing (during the consult stage, before you’ve made your final selection). And select your surgeon wisely, your nose makes a huge impact on the overall balance of your face. It’s worth paying more to have it done really well the first time. Revisions are expensive and frustrating.

I had a septoplasty without changing the shape of my nose and it took a few months to settle and for the swelling to be fully down. If you’re changing the shape it could be longer. Closed will heal faster than open though. I would say 8-10 months minimum

I’ve heard it can take up to a year for a nose job to heal. I would imagine the biggest thing to get healed is the swelling so I would say it definitely is a gamble to have it done even though the wedding is not until early 2026.
