I am so unhappy with my rhinoplasty results and don't know what to do.

August 25, 2015
Asked By:Amy M in New York, NY

I am 4 weeks post op and had some grafting added into my left nostril. I wanted the tip raised and feel that it is low, droopy and overall just unflattering. My oblique view is so upsetting. I am seeing the surgeon in a week and am not sure what if anything can be done to raise the tip at this point. Can this be fixed with a subsequent surgery? What would that entail? Is there anything to do in the meantime. I'm devastated. Thanks in advance for your input.
