Can the Width of the Nasal Bones Change After Osteotomy/rhinoplasty?

Marissa Elouard
I just removed the cast from a revision rhinoplasty I had last week. I got it because my nasal bones were very wide since they had only been rasped and not fractured. So far, I love the results! I want to ask you if it is possible for the bones going back to their original position afterwards. I'm afraid of this happening because I love the way my nose looks now. I also want to ask you if I can remove the dry blood I have inside my nosetrills (I still have the stitches inside).
