Rhinoplasty vs broken nose recovery

hdosencjoskejdidis
So I got a nose job a year and a half ago I loved it it was perfect and the swelling was all gone. However 3 weeks ago I got into an accident and broke my nose I have talked to my original rhinoplasty surgeon and went to ent it's a non displaced fracture so I have to wait about 3 months if I decide to get it surgically fixed. However my question is, is the rhinoplasty and nasal fracture recovery similar? Should I follow the same sort of guidelines. Is healing from a nasal fracture less complex?
