In my case, the surgical packing inside the nose is removed after two days after I had the surgery. But the splint and bandaging was removed after a week. I felt puffy in the areas my eyes and my nose was bruised and swollen for several days. I used cold compress to minimize the swelling and reduce pain. I was also advised to keep my head still and elevated during the first few days of the surgery. I think it took me 10-14 days in total to recover. I was just very thankful to my medical host lotusmedicalinternational.com for recommending a great surgeon and for helping me during my recovery. I did achieve my desired results!
According to lotusmedicalinternational.com, you would be wearing the plaster for 7-10 days. During this period, you will experience swelling and bruising on your nose. Mine was for 10 days, although my surgeon still asked me not to do any strenuous activities for 2-3 weeks. I followed his advice and realized that it was for my own good. If I didn't follow on his orders, I might be able to have complications after the surgery.
