Pain and Recovery Time Vary with Type of Rhinoplasty?

Tags: nose
Within traditional surgical Rhinoplasties, are there some that hurt more/require more time to heal? For example, would narrowing the nose hurt more than raising the nasal bridge? How about making nostrils smaller, or making the tip fuller? I've tried to look for more specific information, but most sites give answers that say moderate to severe pain, and 2 weeks recovery time for all Rhinoplasties.
