Can excessive laughing ruin the results of a rhinoplasty?

Asked By:Andrew0202 in New York, NY

My family are nothing but clowns. Since they are visiting to take care of me we are trying to bond as much as we can. However, I feel the excessive laughing to the point of tears could be detrimental to my nose. I am now 4 days post up and I have probably laughed every single day since surgery. My nose feels fine I am just worried it could ruin my septum cartilages tip that was completely reconstructed from nothing. It doesn’t hurt though.
