Carnation - my daughter had this surgery about 2 years ago - the result of having her nose broken more than once through years of club gymnastics apparently (we had no idea at the time). I would strongly concur with everything Vandalsquirrel suggested.

As to pain and recovery time - I'm sure it differs. Again, thanks to years of club gymnastics and several injuries, I think mine has a pretty high pain tolerance, and I have to tell you - she was in A LOT of pain the first 24 hours. After that it wasn't bad, and she was back up and around in...I want to say 2 days at the most. She had to take it easy for a week or two I think (no running, jumping etc). Sorry, I'm being pretty vague, so not sure how much help this is.
