How can I get my Nose bridge straightened and/or raised?

BaeilyRaeAug 5, 2016
I hit my nose last year February 2015. I called 911 but they didn't take me for some reason. Months go by and I have an X-ray in September 2015 with the result saying nothing's wrong. I wanted to know if there was anything that I could do to PERMANENTLY straighten my nose and will it raise the bridge(especially the dorsal) and make it look back to normal. My fears: I have no deviated septum, tip problems, or anything of that matter. I just want my bridge straightened and defined again.

Usually you want to wait 3-6 months between doing surgeries that are somehow related.  That allows time for swelling to reside and you can get a better idea of profiles and balance.  Of course the longer the better
