I had a closed rhinoplasty done to push the upper nasal bones into place. 3 weeks after surgery I did some massage techniques to my nose to reduce swelling, by holding the tip and sides of my nose for 5 seconds and then releasing. Did this maybe 10 times a day for 4 days and then stopped as I think swelling increased. Will I have damaged the cartilage or shape of my tip/nose? Will my nose shape heal funny because of this or will cartilage/skin always heal and drape as it was??
