I have family that gets very touchy and some of them have a habit of pinching/squeezing other peoples nose as a way of joking. They did that to me last summer but I am going to have a rhinoplasty and will see them 3 months after. I wont tell them about my surgery. Can they cause damage to my cartilage 3 months after if they keep pinching and squeezing my nose?
Ive been squeezing at the pores on my nose around once a week for a while now. I was wondering if it can change the shape of your nose, causing it to become larger? Im afraid with my hard and constant squeezing, it would change the shape/direction of my nose. Im also worried it could cause blood build up underneath which would result in it being permanently swollen? Please let me know, thank you.
hello, It has been 13 or 14 weeks since my surgery. I am really happy with the results but I had too many blackheads and I was so afraid to touch any of them but last week I couldn't resist and squeezed some of them. I was very gentle and tried not to harm anything but still I am very afraid because my nose has swollen since last week. Is it possible that I did harm it? I'm really concerned! Thank you so much!
I had a closed rhinoplasty done to push the upper nasal bones into place. 3 weeks after surgery I did some massage techniques to my nose to reduce swelling, by holding the tip and sides of my nose for 5 seconds and then releasing. Did this maybe 10 times a day for 4 days and then stopped as I think swelling increased. Will I have damaged the cartilage or shape of my tip/nose? Will my nose shape heal funny because of this or will cartilage/skin always heal and drape as it was??
I had a rhinoplasty procedure a week ago to correct a dorsal hump, broad tip and deviated nose. My nose is still slightly deviated and today my surgeon advised me I should squeeze my nasal bones together to help make my bridge thinner and apply pressure towards the left to help straighten it. He said I should do this about 4 times a day for the next week and this could help me get a straight nose, as my nose is still a little bit crooked towards the right. Is it true that these exercises work?
Ok, so a couple of days ago I I watched a YouTube video on how to get rid of a droopy nose by squeezing the tip of your nose where your alar cartilages meet and pushing up the putt on of your nose with your finger at the same time. but I think I did the exercise WAY to wrong. Because now that I squeeze the tip of my nose, It feels like they're cracking up and down sideways from eachother. Whenever I move the tip of my nose back and fourth sideways. And now the tip of my nose is more droopy :(
Tip rhinoplasty is 1/2/18. When I squeeze my nose tip it's like a pop bottle you can feel it pop back out, it's balbous but not fat is this going to be a issue during surgery? I know a full rhinoplasty would be ideal but I just want a subtle change in my tip so it's not so boxy looking. I'm getting nervous and just want to make sure I'm making right decision. Last pic is with nose secret little plastic stents pushing the tip together. (Annoying fell out but I did like results) Thankyou for your help!
I just took my cast off 1 week post op but i have a loooot of blackheads How much time should i wait until i can treat my black head with those strips for nose blackheads? When can i start squeezing them out? How many weeks or months? If not, is there any way i can take care of them carefully right now? Thanks!
I had rhinoplasty performed on my nose 8 years ago and the doctor placed a cartilage graft on it to build the bridge up after the first rhinoplasty. My boyfriend and I were play fighting 5 days ago and he was squeezing my nose where the graft was placed and it resulted in the bump evident in my pictures. Will this need surgery to be corrected? It has only marginally improved since the nose squeezing 5 days ago.
