The signs of aging developed in this face in typical ways: the jowls
developing as drooping skin along the jaw line, the excess skin in the neck, and
the creation and deepening of the lines that extend downward from the corners of
the mouth and from the edges of the nostrils.
She had a face lift for the jowls and sagging skin and a peel for the wrinkles in the
oral region. Her longer, thinner neck and good jaw line gave her the
possibility of a better result, as the skin draped over her good bone structure
in the pull of the face lift.

Questioner:
What is the purpose of massaging nose after rhinoplasty? Do I need to do it if nose is uneven in swelling?
I went to my doctor and forgot to ask him about the unevenness in the swelling of my nose after my rhinoplasty. Since bandage removal post op to now, 7 weeks post op, the right side of nose is still more swollen than the left, and its always been like that. I head about massaging the nose on this website, should I do it? Do some doctors say its mandatory or is it just a recomendation always to help reduce swelling?t I'm just paranoid about my constant uneven swelling on my right side of my nose.

Dr. Denenberg's answer: Don't massage your nose
Hi,
I know doctors disagree about this, but I'll give you my 2 cents. Don't massage the nose. The doctor put the cartilages and bones in a certain position, and you want them to stay where they were put. Don't push them around by massaging the nose. It won't do anything to decrease the swelling or speed up the maturation of the scar tissue.
It can't help, and it might hurt.
