Stiff, hard and too pointy nose tip (Photo)

Question

Today I had my cast off - it is 10 days post closed rino. There is just a little swelling , and I really like the bridge! But what makes me very very worried is the tip! It is too pointy, upturned, stiff and hard! Is it because of the swelling, it it will stay that way permanently? I am afraid that it can't be due to the swelling, because only the tip is that way, not the all nose, so it might not change visibly after some weeks. Is massaging help! Please help me ! :(

Thank you very much for enquire.
Swelling after a rhinoplasty depends of the surgery complexity.
In this regard, the nasal swelling Post-op It can last from two weeks to two months.
To reduce this swelling, I recommend you perform delicates daily lymphatic drainage massage therapy over the face (around the nose) avoid sun exposure, and take pain/inflamation pills, as your surgeron precribe you.
Kind regards,
