Accidentally pinched nose after rhinoplasty, is a revision necessary? (Photo)

August 29, 2024
Asked By:Vivid860573

I got a rhinoplasty 4 weeks ago. I recently got sick and instinctively tried to blow my nose (I was unable to think clearly due to not feeling well), before feeling a sudden pain upon pinching it. Is this likely to have permanently damaged my results? The nostrils appear uneven now (previously they healed to the point of being symmetrical). Will I need a revision, or is it likely just swelling? Or is there anything I can do to self correct? I'm really worried.
