8 years since rhinoplasty. tip asymmetry baseline, surgeon did no correction. smoothed bump on bridge (which I now think lacks definition from frontal view). happy with profile view. but alar asymmetry bothers me. indentation across bridge from swim goggles after surgery. (can't be seen in low light.) also baseline: right profile, two indentations run vertically down side of nostril. i am in New York. suggestions on NY revision MD & treatments? could filler be used to corrections? or surgery?

I would like to find NY doctors who specialize in revision rhinoplasty. I assume I should be hearing the same 2 or 3 names recommended by other doctors. I'd imagine nationwide I'd hear the same top ten. Reputation and expertise is important. But don't want a doctor who stacks patients. Time and attention to detail are also important. Also, what board certifications should I look for?

Revision rhinoplasty in NYC

Two Boards certify rhinoplasty surgeons: Am. Board of Plastic Surgery and Am. Board of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery (ABFPRS). But thats only the start. You need to find in each those who truly are rhinoplasty surgeons, ie interersted in and doing a lot, especially revision. I woud agree with Miller, Pastorek and Pearlman.

In this day and age, many who want the best surgical outcome are not restricted having surgey in the same city. Here in Beverly Hills, we see patients from all across the country, as well as abroad, particularly from the Middle East. I suggest coming to Beverly Hills or Orange Country (Newport Beach) where there are many great Rhinoplasty Surgeons including Rollin Daniel or Jeff Keyes. It is something to consider.

You may be a candidate for either Revision Rhinoplasty Surgery or Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty.

I read your concerns and reviewed your photos. It's tough to tell from your photos what might be best for you. If you're happy with the size of your nose, but wish to restore symmetry, you may be a candidate for a non-surgical rhinoplasty treatment to restore lost volume from your initial rhinoplasty. My personal preference is to use Silikon-1000, an off-label filler for permanent results. If your tip droops too low, or if yoor nasal bones are too wide on your front view,... more

Revision rhinoplasty in New York

For revision rhinoplasty in New York, I would recommend Steven Pearlman. He is a facial plastic surgeon meaning he specializes only in plastic surgery of the face. He is a very experienced revision rhinoplasty surgeon who I have heard speak many times. He achieves phenomenal results.
