Tip Lifted but Now Drooping? Can Removing the Cast Hurt the Results?

crookedtrees
I had my tip lifted during rhinoplasty. immediately after removing the cast it looked lifted and nice. but then a few hours later it seemed to droop? is this swelling? also my cast was removed quite roughly it seems (not so much that it hurt but it tugged the skin abit) will that effect the results? it looks like i still have a bump (althought small) when it was supposedly removed, is that just swelling also?
