How soon after a closed nose reduction should i wait before doing rhinoplasty? (broke my nose and want to remove bump on bridge of my nose).

At least 6 months: To let the structures heal, and the inflammation (due to the injury) to completely go away.

Fixing my nose: There are several things that need to happen. Swelling needs to go away and this will be quick. However it takes linger for the bones to heal. Usually 3-6 months is sufficient.

1 year : Most surgeons recommend waiting about a year for all of the swelling to resolve after the fracture and for the bones to solidify.

Rhino after reductio: Ideal time period is 1 year but minimum would be six weeks as long as there are no complications after the closed reduction.
