How long after rhinoplasty can I wear a P2/N95 mask?

P
Polite220773Mar 11, 2022

I would like rhinoplasty to reduce the hump on the bridge of my nose. For work I am required to wear P2/N95 masks for most of the day. This requires a bit of pressure to mould the mask over the nose to create an effective seal. How long after rhinoplasty can I put pressure on the bridge of my nose?
