⏳ How Long Should You Take Off Work After Rhinoplasty?
Planning your rhinoplasty journey? One of the most common questions is: When can I return to work?
💼 Recommended Time Off
For most patients, it’s advised to take at least 1 to 2 weeks off work after surgery. Here's why:
🔹 Week 1:
You’ll likely wear a nasal splint, experience swelling, bruising (especially around the eyes), and feel general fatigue. This is the most intense part of healing.
🔹 Week 2:
The splint is usually removed, and most patients feel significantly better. Some mild bruising or swelling might remain, but many people feel ready to return to work — especially if their job is not physically demanding.
📌 Important: If your job involves physical activity, heavy lifting, or exposure to dust/sun, your return might be delayed.
✅ Tips for a Smooth Return
🛌 Get plenty of rest during the first week
🧴 Stick to your surgeon’s skincare and medication routine
😷 Be cautious about facial movements and environments
😎 Use sunglasses or makeup to cover any remaining bruising (if approved by your surgeon)
