Bumped nose 6 weeks after Rhinoplasty

Dear Waffle123Thanks for the question. It's too early to make a comment about the healing but it’s very rare to see removed hump comeback but for some cases still it’s possible to see %10-12 remove hump growing back. I advice to consult your doctor. I wish you all the best.

I think that I receive at least one call a week from a patient who inadvertently bumped their nose following rhinoplasty surgery.  There are certainly injuries that can disrupt your surgical result, but for the most part, after a couple of weeks, a bump to the nose should not cause any significant injury to a previously operated nose.  Obviously, contact your surgeon for some reassurance.

Mild trauma to the nose does not lead to any significant changes in the nasal shape or function.  However, if you see any deformity of the nose you must see you surgeon.RegardsDr. J

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,

A slight bump on your nose shouldn't adversely affect your rhinoplasty results. Now, if he's really banged you and it hurt like a mother, maybe, but based on your description, you should be fine. Kindly,Kouros Azar
