I had a septoplasty last year and told my surgeon I didn't want my nose to change and to keep my convexity. She then proceeded to completely remove my dorsal hump and radix. I just want my old nose back. The tip of my nose was completely untouched during the surgery if that helps the cause. I made sure she didn't touch my tip.
The donor dermis on my radix is too high is narrow looking making my face look out of proportion. I've been waiting for a very long time to get it safely removed. I'm told that my original radix cartilage was not shaved down. What are the chances, I will still have my old bridge? (I want my old bridge back)
Hello! I'm considering revision rhinoplasty for augmentation of my radix, my bridge is already aligned with my radix (my profile is straight) but because my radix is deep I feel like my nose is too close to my face, my question is if it's possible to only augment the radix or if I would need to augment both bridge+ radix, also is it difficult to do both as opposed to only one and if it increases the cartilage requirements as well as the prices too much. Thank you!
I got septorhinoplasty 2years back but since then my nasal bridge is not sharp as before and in side profile it looks curvy and depressed .Should i consider getting radix augmentation or is it fine and just in the mind
had a rhinoplasty a month ago. Extremely upset as the surgeon did not fix my concerns. My concerns are: the radix feels too high, the size is about the same except a bit straighter. But I can ensure it is almost the same size as it was before. The only difference is no hump & no dropping tip. I have emphasized many times that I want it as small as possible. I am considering a revision. How soon can I get one?
Desperately battelling with my life for the past 6 years after a botched rhinoplasty. I had to wait 3 years before doing the 4th revision. We improved the dorsum and needed to do a radix augmentafion because it was still too low. My surgeon placed a radix graft, and after 6-7 month I started to notice the graft under my skin become more visible. What can I do to keep my radix high without the graft being visible? fillers might help conceal it but I don't want to do this every year.
I had a rhinoplasty over a year ago now. It was made a lot more proportionate to my small featured face but I still feel its disproportionate to my forehead. Im surprised my surgeon didnt really do anything. Would it be possible to deepen the radix at the top of the bridge of my nose?
I had a rhinoplasty one year back and I have a high radix (my nose starts right from my forehead). I want to bring it down but I don't want to go through the recovery period of a rhinoplasty again (so I am trying to avoid revision rhinoplasty). I was wondering if radix rasping will be a procedure for my problem? Does radix rasping involve breaking bone or just shaving down the bones? I believe it is the breaking of bones which makes the recovery long and tough?! Thank you.
My radix, the bone between my eyes has been narrowed a great deal following rhinoplasty. My whole nose has been overly narrowed. It has completely changed my eyeline and made my eyes appear smaller and closer together somehow. Its just changed how they look. Can this bone be made wider again?
I got a rhinoplasty to primarily remove a dorsal bump, I always disliked my side profile, but loved the front of my face. My radix and tip were slightly raised. ( I have an appearance of asian/ hispanic mix) I miss my low radix as I think it enhanced my eyes. Radix feels high and as if there is a wedge between them. Also, the bridge of my nose is crooked and wider with a microhump in certain angles. Previously, my nose was small & petite, straighter from front.
