Will my Surgeon Be More Likely to Do a Better Job on my Rhinoplasty if I'm His First Surgery of the Day or the Last?

I know it seems like a silly question but its really not. Take for example my hair stylist. I've found she does a much better job if I'm her very first client of the day. Verses being the last when she;s worked all day and tired. I know a stylist goes through a lot more clients in a day then a surgeon, so their not comparable. But i'm still wondering if it makes a difference? I've researched my surgeon and am confident in him but i'm still looking for the best possible results, as is anyone!!
A: First or Last Surgery of the Day

Every surgeon is different and has different preferences as to the time of day to perform surgery.  My energy level allows me to do surgery all day.  I thrive in the operating room. My focus, attention to detail and my mental stamina are magnified in the operating room atmosphere.

How to Tell if my Nose is Broken?

I was in wrestling a few days ago, and I was slammed on my nose and now it is swollen and hard to breath out of. It's very sensitive, and whenever I move it, it makes a clicking noise. I'm just wondering if it is broken, and worth going to the doctor for.
A: Broken Nose

It sounds like you are describing a broken nose.  Contact a facial plastic surgeon to assess your situation.  You may elect to wait approximately one week to allow alot of the swelling to subside.  Your surgeon will examine and evalutate you and come up with a possible surgical plan.

Rhinoplasty Swelling

I had a Rhinoplasty 3 weeks ago and my nose is still very swollen. How long is it normal to have rhinoplasty swelling after surgery?
A: Rhinoplasty Swelling

Swelling after Rhinoplasty can last anywhere from a few months to a year before all of the sweeling has disappeared. This would not be unusual.
