I've got my nose pierced one year ago and am looking forward to do a rhinoplasty. I'm wondering if I would be able to put a nose ring in my nose or should I pierce it again after the surgery?

One of the worst dissapointments for patient and surgeon after rhinoplasty is an accidental injury to the nose while it is weak and still healing after surgery. This usually happens when a companion, child or pet gets too close to the patient's face and bumps the nose. Kissing is just too risky...
Your nose will still change a lot over the next six months or so. It is common for the middle third and tip to appear quite a bit wider at this point compared to where it will eventually settle once your nose has completely healed after your rhinoplasty.
