Has a Nose Clip Permanently Damaged my Nose?

August 30, 2012
Asked By:Charmaine999

About 3 weeks ago, I started using a nose clip on my nose to try to create a higher nose. After one week of wearing it for several hours a day, my nose bridge increased substantially and got significantly narrower. However, it also created two ugly indentations on the nose bridge, so I stopped wearing the clip, hoping my nose will change back. However, its been 2 weeks now and my nose has not returned to its old state. How long more before my nose changes back? do i need revision rhinoplasty?
