Q: Six months enough waiting before Revision Rhinoplasty?

A:

After an extensive primary rhinoplasty/septoplasty it is probably best to wait a full year to allow for the swelling to subside.  Some things may improve that may have been "fixed" in a surgery done too early.  Additionally, the repair will be much easier from a technical aspect if the time for the initial healing is allowed. Finally, the repair will probably be as extensive as the first surgery, thus, a tincture of time is best.
