I’m wondering if it’s safe enough to take a covid vaccine early in the recovery period of a rhinoplasty?

The swelling and induration (firmness) following a rhinoplasty take many months to completely resolve. And although we generally think of most of it resolving by 6 months, it does vary from patient to patient depending on skin type, amount of surgery, skill of the surgeon and post-operative care...
