I am planning to get a rhinoplasty & am wondering what kind of mask or other PPE to wear after the surgery, specifically something that would not put pressure on my nose bridge & cheeks but still be protective? I will also be travelling soon afterwards and would like to be fully protected during the flight. Also, if I was to get Covid after the surgery, could it affect the rhinoplasty results? Rhinoplasty reasons: breathing & cosmetic issues. Please advise!! Thank you in advance

Dear Sassafrass31,
it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. If you are considering a surgery, I would suggest you to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.
