Question

I have already had rhinoplasty as few weeks ago but wanted to know if you can offer steroid injections?

Answer

I do not tend to do the steroid injections for patients that had rhinoplasty treatment elsewhere, with the exception of patients that are contemplating revision surgery under my care, but still need to wait for a while to allow the healing and settling of the tissues to progress.

I would advise you to discuss your concerns with your surgeon, and, since it is very early after your intervention, to follow their recommendations regarding management at this stage.
