Status post rhinoseptoplasty 2018. Unable to remember the details, but did have grafting from my ear to help build up the tip of my nose. Initially loved the appearance of my nose, however, progressively started to notice some deviation but chalked it up to poor lighting or the angle. Now, it is undeniably noticeable regardless of lighting or angle. Is this an inverted v deformity? What causes this? I understand revision is the next step, but what exactly should be done to help prevent this from happening again?
Hello.I had a closed rhinoplasty many years ago. He was just supposed to make my nose less bulbous on the tip and more refined. My nose looks exactly the same. Would it be possible to get another closed rhinoplasty or just go ahead and get an open one? My fear is the nose collapsing due to scar tissue. I have always disliked my nose. Thank you for your time!
Hi, I had full rhinoplasty in June 2022. I have always suffered with mild sinus issues but I feel they have worsened since the procedure. My nose feels tight, which I guess is normal, my eyes are always heavy and swollen and the majority of the time one nostril or the other is blocked. I get very little relief from this and it is starting to have a negative impact on my life. Orbital pain is an on-going issues (pain around nose, eyebrows and under eyes. I am just trying to figure out if it could be anything to do with the surgery and what your suggestions are for resolving it if it is. Thank you
I had a second revision rhinoplasty 7 months ago to correct graft work from a previous surgeon and address nasal collapse from my first procedure. Unfortunately, my nostrils still look significantly uneven. Is there any way to avoid a third revision? Could a surgeon potentially shave or sculpt the scar tissue in the smaller nostril to better match the right side? I'm really hoping to avoid going through another surgery.
I had a nose job 6 years ago and was really happy with the results however I hit my nose really hard and since then it has changed a bit. I have what feels like a ball in the nose tip and its getting bigger, I had a ultrasound on it and the doctor wanted to get a biopsy using a hole puncture but I havent done it because I dont want it more damaged. What could this be from? Not sure if it was going that way anywaythe bump also appears to have less pigmentation. Will I need a revision rhinoplasty or are there any other treatments that could help?
I recently had a rhinoplasty. While Im happy with the results from the side profile, Ive noticed that my nostrils are asymmetrical. This asymmetry is really bothering me. My surgeon has suggested an in-office procedure using cartilage grafted from my ear to correct it. Before moving forward, I wanted to get a second opinion. Given that the initial surgery didnt achieve nostril symmetry, Im unsure whether this is a relatively simple fix or if I should consider seeing a different surgeon for the revision.
4 years ago I had my primary rhinoplasty that included alar base reduction, I'm soon getting a revision rhinoplasty due to issues from the primary one but my surgeon advised that we can cut the skin and stitch it back again to enhance the scar shape (he will not narrow the nosrils) however i had previously consulted another surgeon before him and he said he cannot touch that scar because it's on the nose and the cheek and that if he touched it it will get distorted so the best option would be fractional laser.. to be fair i like the idea of removing the scar without feeling anything and at the same cost instead of having to go through expensive fractional laser sessions, yet I'm not sure if this procedure would make the whole thing worse or if the surgeon cut the scar close to the cheek would mess up my face.. please check the attached photos to judge the scar and let me know which option you think is the best for my scar Thank you!
