After non surgical rhinoplasty with Radiesse injected into nose, how long do I have to wait before I can start wearing eye glasses or surgical face mask? I do lab work that sometimes requires wearing surgical face mask (like the one dentist wears), but those face mask sometimes leave elastic band marks on my nose temporarily after I take off the mask. Thanks so much!

I hope this is helpful for you.
