Did I change the shape of my nose after getting a facial?

Asked By:briannab1996 in Beverly Hills, CA

I had rhinoplasty over a year ago and I recently went in to get a facial. I forgot to tell her to be careful on my nose. She squeezed my nose in all kinds of directions and pressed really hard on it to remove the blackheads. The next day, my nose was hurting/bruised/swollen. After the swelling went down, I didn't notice any changes, but I'm still paranoid that she changed the shape of my cartilage. How much pressure does it take to change the shape of the nose/cartilage?
