Nose Still Deviated After Open Septoplasty and Rhinoplasty? (photo)

Topherboloafer
I am a 25 y/o male who underwent open septo-rhinoplastly 10 days ago to straighten my nose and remove the hump. I was born with a deviated nose and also broke it when I was 5 y/o. Although i am very pleased with my surgeon and results thus far(nose is straighter and i breathe much better), I wonder if it is still slightly crooked due to swelling or incomplete correction? I understand there is swelling, however, I feel even if the swelling subsides the nose will still be slightly crooked?
