I have in my nose something called "The PDS Plate" does it increase the swelling?

Qatari90
I have learned recaintly that in my previous rhinoplasty the dr used something called PDS plate on my nose without me knowing anything about it. Please doctors tell me what is this thing ? And I'm looking to have a revision rhinoplasty, is this plate going to effect the success of the 2nd surgery ? My nose now after 4 months is still very stiff and hard and leaning to one side which it wasn't before.
