My nose upturns at an extreme angle, making me have the appearance of a cute little piglet. Not so cute. I was just wondering if it is at all possible to fix or would it just look worse after the procedure?

As a general rule of thumb, I always advise my patients to refrain from physical activity for the first three weeks after a nose job. Though this estimate seems a little long, it is better to be safe during this crucial time in your recovery. In terms of swimming after your nose job, I think...
The steroid injection won't "create" a new bump or hump but if there was an underlying bump or hump that was "masked" by the swelling or thickness of the skin, after steroid injection this can be "unmasked" or "unveiled"!
Generally speaking, it can take 6 to 12 months to completely heal after surgery. Please stay in touch with your surgeon or his/her clinical team to discuss your ongoing concerns.
