I had rhinoplasty 12 days and was wondering what are the side affects of getting drunk 16 days pot-op as its my bestfriends 18th. ?

PLEASE ASK YOUR Rhin: Plasty doctor as you are still in the post op period and your doc knows how the surgery went and knows what meds you are on now and as part of his or her fee that doc should answer any questions you may have, an obvious side effect if u get too drunk would be to fall and bust your nose, i would say it is not adviseable , you have the rest of your life to drink if u want and other b-days will come.

Do not: You are still healing and should minimize alcohol intake. You can attend the party but moderation is important.

Bleeding and injury: In addition to potentially increasing the risk of postoperative bleeding, you may put yourself in a position where you are more prone to injury and compromise of your surgical result that you worked so hard to achieve. Use caution if you do proceed.

Drink after rhino: Isn't the legal drinking age 21? Kidding aside, alcohol consumption will have the effect of dilating your blood vessels and causing your nose to swell. Will this swelling eventually resolve? Yes, it will. Will it prolong your recovery time until your nose achieves its final appearance? Yes, it will also do that. Please consult with your surgeon before deciding either way.
