I had rhinoplasty several months ago. I am not...

I had rhinoplasty several months ago. I am not happy with the results because too much nostril is showing and I had NO nostrils showing prior to surgery. This was a huge mistake and I wish I never had the surgery.

Do I need a revision and how is it done?

Great review?

Hi Luke, Has time improved the outcome of your surgery? I am having the same problem but just had my surgery 3 weeks ago and I am hoping that the nostrils showing so much is a result of swelling. I hate looking in the mirror!

Hi, has the outcome improved for you so far? are the nostrils still showing as much?
Revision rhinoplasty can be a complex procedure. First, discuss this with your original surgeon. If you are not satisfied with the answer, seek out a specialist for advice and to consider a revision. Too much nostril showing can be due to a number of different factors so it is difficult to answer here without an personal exam.
