When Can I Stop Worrying About Something Going Wrong After my Rhinoplasty?

Cbus7950
Hi, I had rhinoplasty/septoplasty done about 2 months ago. I am so worried about hurting my result, or something going wrong. I think the reason I am so worried, is my surgeon told me on 2 different occasions, that he did not have to break my bones to do what I wanted done. After the procedure I found out he did perform breaks. I am very worried about shifting/twisting. How long after surgery do I have to wait to feel confident in my result?
