After 3 months is that pretty enough tough for such hits ?

Turkishgirl,After 3 months post op, I do not think this hit would cause permanent change to the nose shape. However, if the hit was hard enough, a slight alteration may have occurred. I suggest making an appointment to see your doctor for a check up on your progress.I hope this helps!Dr. Ali Sajjadian

It is possible to cause damage to the nose 3 months after rhinoplasty. It is unlikely any permanent damage was caused, but I would recommend following up with your surgeon for an exam. I hope this helps, and I wish you the best of luck.

It still would be possible to damage a nose by a hit 3 months after rhinoplasty surgery, but the from the description you provided of the hit, I doubt there would be any permanent damage to your nose.  If you are concerned, I would contact your surgeon to be examined.
