Tip slightly over projected after rhinoplasty

rhal22
i had a rhinoplasty to strengthen the tip of my nose. I am 10 days post op and the tip seems slightly overprojected. will the tip lower when swelling subsides? also, can I tape the tip down to manipulate the outcome? if so, when should I start? any help would be greatly appreciated
