I Am Unhappy with the Looks of my Rhinoplasty Surgery but What if It Looks Good to All Doctors?
I really don't like the way my new nose looks but I don't know what can be changed. maybe it could be made longer. If the nose i have looks ok to many surgeons, will any of them change it because i don't like it?

Your Nose Should Look The Way You LIke It To Be
Hello,
Without photos (before/after), the details of your surgery and an in-person evaluation where the surgeon understands your concerns and your goals, you will not be able to be happy with your nose.
That being said, if you have undergone several consultations and almost all surgeons agreed that your nose is great and does not require a corrective surgery then their case may be holding water from a surgical perspective; perhaps your goal will not be possible to be achieved...

Unhappy with the result of rhinoplasty
Good communication with your surgeon is very important for helping you to achieve the best possible result and leave you happy with your new nose. To give you the best advice, it would help to know how long ago you had your procedure. Depending on the nature of your surgery, it can take up to two years to see the final result. This is especially true if tip work was performed during your surgery. If you are still unhappy with your nose following a reasonable recovery...

Concerning rhinoplasty your opinion counts
If you are unhappy with your nose after rhinoplasty your surgeon may indeed see the result as just fine and so may others, though your opinion counts as well. You may need a second opinion, and computer imaging is very helpful to sort out and describe what changes might look like and demonstrate what you are after.

You may want to post a photo, with your concerns about your Rhinoplasty.
If you're dissatisfied with your result, and if your surgeon says all is well, you may want to get a second opinion. Or, as I suggested above, you could re ask your query with a photo for the RealSelf community of experts to view and comment on.
Hope this helps.

Your opinion is important
If you are unhappy about the appearance of your nose, you should first and foremost go back to see your original surgeon and explore this with him or her. If you think it looks bad because the surgery failed to reach your goals, you may explore a revision with your surgeon (or someone else if need be). If the surgery did reach the targetted outcome, but you just have second thoughts about having undergone the change, you may want to carefully consider what exactly you want from...
