I had a bad rhinoplasty experience a year ago where unknowingly a strut graft was put in my nose extending the length and which inhibits my smile (unable to hardly lift upper lip). I now have a longer nose with a very bulbous tip... Can the graft be removed and tip sutured smaller?
Answer: Can columellar strut septum extension be removed and tip sutured smaller? The answer is probably so. The strut may or may not be necessary based upon inherent tip support. In almost all of these that I perform, the strut is not necessary.Find a plastic surgeon with ELITE credentials who performs hundreds

Answer: In revision rhinoplasty, we often move, remove or replace grafts that have created an unfavorable result There are a number of reasons why the tip of you nose can look larger or more bulbous after rhinoplasty. Part may be due to cartilage grafts used but for a more specific answer, a personal exam where the nose can be examined and touched to help determine the causes is necessary.

Answer: Revision rhinoplasty considerations Yes, your columellar strut can be removed if necessary. We don't have any photos to analyze, so it's not possible to comment on specific recommendations. Since it has been a year, at this point if you are still unhappy with your result, you should consider an evaluation/consult with a surgeon that specializes in rhinoplasty and is comfortable doing revision rhinoplasty. Best of luck.
