I wanted to change a bulbous nasal tip and flaring nostrils.

I completely regret the surgery, as the communication between the surgeon and I was poor and he did not use digital imaging. I am now seeking a revision rhinoplasty.

I had an Asian augmentation rhinoplasty 2 months ago and what I'm most concerned about is that the surgeon placed an ear cartilage graft at the top of my bridge, and now my nose is uneven. I did not have any concerns about my bridge before the surgery, it was a last-minute suggestion from my surgeon. Now I want it removed asap, is this possible?

Great review?

My Doctor: name not provided

My rating:

Does not use digital imaging, poor communication.

Also, how can you afford another nose job when most people can barely afford one? Or is the original doctor going to fix his mistake with no additional charge? Not that it looks like a mistake, I think your new nose actually looks nice!

I hope your swelling went down and you are happier with your nose. I have some pics on my Perlane review you might want to see- don't have $ for a rhinoplasty right now but I have had my facial plastic surgeon put a tiny bit of filler in my bridge and it got rid of what looked like a bump. If you are willing to travel, I know that my doctor does phenomenal rhinoplasty revisions, and lots of them.

Wait at least a year to hv a revision. As the ear cartilage will get absorbed a bit by your body and it will even out by itself.

Wait for at least 6 months for the swelling to go down, and then about a year before trying to do something else.

I thing that he had to use long and strong rib cartilage, not curved ear cartilage for the bridge...
