I Had a Rhinoplasty and Am Not Satisfied with It and Now Want a Revision Rhinoplasty. What's Your Professional Opinion?

I still think my nose is unattractive and imperfect. What do you think of my nose? Please be honest.

I think that you have a pretty nice result. I wouldn't recommend a revision for you based on what I see in the pictures. Take care.

How Much Time Needed To Fit In Revision Before Pregnancy?

I know that it takes months for nose to heal fully but I have real thin skin according to my doctor and my swelling is now almost done at 2 months, what is the absolute minimum to have a revision as m not happy with my tip or the remaining hump. I read six months, any risks I should be aware of of I redo it at 6 months instead of a year since we want to plan for a baby soon?

Although it is often said that rhinoplasty results take 1 year to fully settle, there should be very little (if not imperceptible) changes to the nose between the 6 month and 1 year mark.

How Can I Found an Experienced Surgeon in Alberta Especially on Nasal Reconstruction? (Photo)

I had a surgery on my nose ala removing basal cell cancer and followed by half nasal reconstruction with forearm flap 2 years ago. Now my half nose greatly deformed due to the shrinkage of flap. I need a further nasal reconstruction with forehead flap by skin extension. Since I am living in Alberta, could you please recommend me a plastic surgeon in region with much experience of nasal reconstruction? Thanks!

I do not personally know him, but Dr. Kal Ansari is a facial plastic surgeon with what seem to be impeccable training credentials. He is in the department of otolaryngology and head and neck surgery at the University of Alberta. Good luck in your search.
