Hello, I was told by a plastic surgeon that my skin is too thick for rhinoplasty. The tip that is. Any new techniques? A dermatologist recently told me that RF microneedling can make it possible. Isn't laser a better option to attempt to thin the skin? Any info greatly appreciated, such a steriod options also. Thank you
I had a nose job when I was 20 years old, 6 years ago. These last couple of years Ive noticed one side of my nose is slightly tilted to the left and the skin on that side feels much thinner than on the right side. Both sides look very different but I dont know if this kind of thing can be resolved with another surgery or things like fillers would be enough.
I'm in my late 50s and am interested in rhinoplasty. I have been told that because my skin is so thin at the bridge I need to find a top doctor who specializes/only performs this surgery. Admittedly the skin is very thin. I haven't had luck finding this kind of doctor. Advice? Am I no longer a candidate for this surgery?
I am 22 year old female with fair (and probably thin) skin. I weigh 53kg. I broke my nose 12 weeks ago playing sport, and did not have it reset as it was only a confirmed break ~3 weeks post injury. Will a rhinoplasty improve the appearance of my nose? The dorsal hump is more obvious post injury, and there is some asymmetry (or so I think), especially under certain lighting. Thanks so much for any advice!
Im almost 14 months post op and ive seen this weird orange discoloration on my tip before, but now its gettinf worse and its red ans visible now from the front view. Smetimes its more of a verticale line, and its where there is a dent in the cartilage. Its also next to a scar where skin was probably torn. I hav thin skin. Is my skin quality going downhill? My surgeon hasnt been helpful and im scared it will only get worse..
Does this look like an inverted V? Ive always felt this big groove between the cartilage and boney part bit im now 10 months with thin skin and since my skin started shrink wrapping it became more visibe. Cant really get it on a pic but if you connect the dots you kinda see. I also aalready hae an open roof on the left ;(
I am having a primary septorhinoplasty in a few months to correct a deviation of the bony and cartilaginous pyramid and the nasal septum. My surgeon has told me that I have a very fine skin particularly over the bridge. He also told me that he may need to use rib cartilage. I am worried about the final result having a fine skin. Any advice on this? Thanks
I had my surgery 7 months ago. I developed an uneven area on the bottom third of my nose. It is soft to the touch at certain points of the day, but can also get hard at times. I was told my skin is thin. Would this still be swelling or scar tissue.
Hi, I have thin skin & before I had rhinoplasty, the doctors that I considered mentioned fibrosis was nearly impossible in my skin type. However about 2-3 weeks after the procedure, my nose appeared somewhat deformed. My doctor said it was fibrosis and began injecting steroids, I'm only writing to get 2nd opinion. I trust my surgeon but he's out of state. Are steroid injections enough, are there other ways to deal with fibrosis on thin skin? Thanks
