Realistic recovery timeline for nose surgery in Korea?

A realistic timeline: the external cast/splint usually comes off around day 5–7, and that is when most people feel presentable for casual settings. Major bruising and swelling fade over 2 weeks, so video calls are typically feasible from about week 2–3, though the tip stays subtly swollen. Glasses should be avoided on the bridge for roughly 4–6 weeks if osteotomy was done (tape them to your forehead or use contacts). Refined 'final' results emerge gradually over 6–12 months as tip swelling resolves. If your work is camera-light, planning ~2 weeks before the first important call is sensible.

This is general information — an in-person consultation with a board-certified specialist is the only way to get advice tailored to your anatomy and goals.
