Did I have my splint off too early?

Asked By:Ava L in London, GB

Hi :-) I had my nose done in June 2015 and had my splint off after 6 days, we didn't tape, loved the results straight after the splint was off, it swolled up, as I was expecting, but 6 months later and it hasn't gone back down. Ive recently heard some practices keep splints on for 10 days then tape. Has my nose not stuck in the right place because the splint was off too early and we didn't tape? Is 6 days not long enough?
