Self tanning after rhinoplasty
This should be fine, but I wouldn't use it soon after a rhinoplasty. These products can contain harsh chemicals that may cause the skin to react, and swell, following a rhinoplasty. Wait at least a few weeks.

Yes, self tanning fine after rhinoplasty. Some of the products clog pores, and the pores on the lower nose are large. If you clog them, they may get bigger, or even infected (zits). Can't imagine any other possible problem self tanning after rhinoplasty.

Recovery after rhinoplasty
There is no contraindication to using the self tanner after rhinoplasty. I would recommend gentle massage into the more tender areas around the nose.

Rhinoplasty will not change your ability to use self tanning lotions. I would wait about 6 weeks after surgery to allow time for nasal skin circulation to recover.

I would wait a few weeks to let everything heal - especially if you are going to be rubbing it into your skin. After that, it should be no problem to use self tanner. If you had a columellar incision I would make sure to keep it our of the sun.
