I'm a dancer looking to get a nose job. How long would it take for the procedure to heal so that I could get back to dancing?

I'm 18 years old and have a slight hump on my nose that has bothered me from a very young age. However, being a ballet/modern dancer, I'm a bit worried about the recovery. How long would it take for me to get back to dancing? Thank you!
