Answer: Permanent damage with sudden facial movement after rhinoplasty?
Generally speaking, it can take 6 to 12 months to completely heal after surgery. Please keep in touch with your surgeon or his/her clinical team to discuss your ongoing concerns.
The odds of it getting infected are extremely low. A pimple is typically in the skin only and the Gortex is deep.Good LuckStephen M. Davis, MD, FACSGreen Hills Plastic Surgery
Yes, your nose is still deviated. You should consider a revision rhinoplasty. You also need some additional work on the tip. At least you are showing improvement.
