Natural results with REVISION rhinoplasty

Natural results are what plastic surgery is all about! The best way to get natural results with a revision is to make sure there is a good plan in place to manage all of the issues that are causing you to have a revision in the first place. Choose a board certified plastic surgeon who does a good number of revisions each year. Make sure you like their results, and then realize that there is an increased revision rate with revision rhinoplasty. Best of luck! more

Rhinoplasty

Rhinoplasty is different than septoplasty. Septoplasy corrects a deviated septum but does not change the cosmetic look of the nose. If you desire a cosmetic improvement then you need to discuss that with a board certified experienced surgeon

How to get a natural looking rhinoplasty result

The fact that your nose looks the same after deviated septum repair is not surprising.
