Revision rhinoplasty after trauma

It isn't uncommon to need revision rhinoplasty after having an intitial surgery done due to trauma. A wide variety of treatments can be considered in such cases. Improving scars, exernal deviation, contour deformities, and internal breathing issues are some examples. Consulting with an experienced rhinoplasty surgeon would allow you to see what options you have.

Revision rhinoplasty

The options depend on what the residual deformity is that needs to be addressed. External soft tissue skin scarring or loss may not be able to be corrected. Residual deviation, saddling or asymmetry can usually be helped.
