ive already had an open one. my nose was broken and brought in, my tip turned up and some off of it & bump filed down.The only thing is he added septum cartilage to the top and bottom of bump to make it look straighter which just inturn gave me a bigger nose in height wise which is not what i wanted. also the tip is too upturned and too much off. i preferred my longer nose. would a revision be better with a closed or open since he would just have to file it down more and add back on the tip?
Answer: Revision Rhinoplasty, Open or Closed Techniques?
Both Open and Closed Rhinoplasty Techniques and Approaches can be used. The choice of technique depends on several factors including the extent of the correction needed, the degree and location of the deformity, your expectations and the rhinoplasty surgeon's preference.
Most importantly, you should choose your surgeon carefully. Revision Rhinoplasty is a challenging procedure. You would be best served by someone who has passion for this procedure and has extensive training in all aspects of nasal surgery. Make sure that you are confident in their ability and skills. You want this to be your last procedure!
Hope this was helpful.

Answer: Rhinoplasty revision
It really depends on what corrections are needed, as well as your surgeon's preference. Since you have already had an open procedure, I would personally do an open rhinoplasty revision again. This will give the surgeon my control.

Answer: Closed versus open approach in revision rhinoplasty
In my opinion, if the revision is extensive in nature and requires a lot of grafting and additional surgery, it is best to have an open approach so that previous areas can be addressed without guesswork. That being said, for more limited revisions, we often will do a closed approach. The most imortant question to ask is what is being done and how the surgeon can specifically address the issue being corrected. I hope this information helps.

Answer: Closed rhinoplasty or open rhinoplasty?
Both approaches are appropriate depending on the surgeon's comfort with that method. An open approach for revision surgery deals with more scarring and a more difficult dissection, but allows better visualization and placement of cartilage grafts. There is slightly more swelling after surgery with an open approach. If a small hump needs to simply be filed down more, a closed approach may be appropriate. There is less swelling after surgery with the closed approach.
