Accepted Answer

If : If you have any bruising after your rhinoplasty, it should resolve after about 2 weeks. The swelling takes a little longer and depends a lot on your skin thickness and what type of work is being done.

There's often residual nose swelling for up to about a yeat after surgery (often pretty subtle such that no one else would notice) so the more time you have to heal the better your nose should look.

Your surgeon should be able to give you a better idea of when you'll look healed enough to go to your party.
