Question: how long do you stay in hospital after rhinoplasty?
Answer: The procedure can take 1.5 to 3 hours. You'll probably need to stay in hospital for 1 or 2 nights. You'll have a dressing on your nose for the first 12 hours after the operation, and a splint held over your nose with tape for 7 days. You may not be able to breathe through your nose for about a week.
