Revision Rhinoplasty

How does a Revision Rhinoplasty work?

A Revision Rhinoplasty works to resolve any aesthetic concerns you have with your original Rhinoplasty result. You can expect your surgeon to alter the cartilage, perhaps removing or trimming parts of it, if there is an issue with an unliked bump or scar tissue. They may also make bigger structural changes to the nasal bone or make grafts (soft tissue taken from another part of the body) to give the nose more support or shape.

The technique and plan for your nose job revision will be discussed and created for you by your surgeon. It will be completely shaped around resolving your aesthetic concern and the best way to meet your expectation for your Secondary Rhinoplasty.

Is Revision Rhinoplasty dangerous?

With all surgeries there is a degree of risk involved, however this is reduced when you choose an experienced, board-certified Plastic Surgeon.

A Revision Rhinoplasty, by itself, is not a dangerous procedure. It can present the surgeon with certain challenges to overcome, but with a thorough surgical plan, this procedure can be performed seamlessly.

So, no, a nose job revision is not dangerous, but can be difficult. Factors such as skin quality, scar tissue and deficient cartilage, have to be taken into consideration and often mean that a delicate surgical approach is required.
