Does revision rhinoplasty recovery take longer?

I had Revision Rhinoplasty 12 weeks ago. At least 3 times a week, my nose from the bridge to the tip turns red and then the color disappears a couple hours later. My surgeon took cartilage from the bridge to build up the tip, where it had formed a dent. It is still very swollen and the bridge still hurts at times. Does revision take longer to heal? Thank you.
