  • Posted to I Developed a Deviated Septum from a Botched Nose Job - Atlanta, GA on 7 Jun 2010
    I had a small, slim nose from a rhinoplasty years ago. I hurt a nostril and breathing from an injury and had a correction/revision. I now have a huge, crooked nose with extremely poor breathing. At least your doctor cared enough to try to correct the problems. My doctor refused to treat me after the problems became apparent and now I spend my time trying to find a surgeon to correct the breathing problems and reduce the size of my nose from the revision.

    I can relate. I had a small slim nose from a primary rhinoplasty. I had a revision because a small accident hurt a nostril and my breathing. I am now left with a horribly wide, crooked, collapsed nose with notched nostrils. It is so badly damaged from the revision that surgeons feel they can't restore the former shape. When I tell a surgeon who performed the revision, they refuse to correct it. I keep praying I will find a surgeon with the skills to repair my breathing and restore the slim shape it had.

  • Posted to Can a rib graft in my nose be removed? on 2 Apr 2010

    I had rhinoplasty years ago and my nose was small and slim. Due to an accident a year ago, a nostril was injured, my tip was tilting and my breathing was limited. I had revision rhinoplasty 9 months ago during which cartilage grafts were placed on the sides of my nose. Now my nose is far too wide and the cartilage grafts are collapsed and preventing almost all breathing. Since the grafts made my nose too wide and are blocking breathing, would it be advisable to have them removed to allow my nose to return to its original size?

    I'm glad your surgery turned out so well. I had rhinoplasty years ago. My nose was small, slim and looked okay. I recentlyhad an accident and injured my nose I underwent revision rhinoplasty and I currently have practically no ability to breathe through my nose, and my nose is extremely wide, large and poorly shaped. Could you release the name of your surgeon?
