Broken nose 1 year after open rhinoplasty, when can I extract whiteheads on my nose & lift weights?

Because my nose is so swollen I find it's producing more oil how long before I can extract?

Hi there, it could just be swelling. Massaging the area can help bring the swelling down. Keep in mind that it takes about 1 to 1 year and a half for the nose to heal fully. Good luck with everything and if you have any questions feel free to contact our office!

Swelling and final results on rhinoplasty takes 18-24 months and patients should refrain from having any revisional surgery before then. Bones heal by getting bigger for the first 3 months and then getting smaller for next 12 months.
