When you are not happy with the results then you have to seek a revision-expert surgeon, not a regular one.Many surgeons refuse to revise a surgery and they send you to an expert. Why? What is so important about revision surgeries? I'm not happy with my nose surgery. There is nothing wrong with it but I want to improve it more. So, I need a revision surgeon.

Answer: You are correct, revision surgery should be done by a revision expert I know you asked this in question form, but your comment is correct. The reason why you should seek out an expert for revision surgery,especially revision Rhinoplasty is because rhinoplasty is a very complex surgery in the first place. Revision rhinoplasty is even more difficult and has subtleties that may not be recognized by a surgeon who only occasionally performs this operation. All too often patients have even worse results if revsions are attempted by less than very experienced surgeons in that specific procedure. To be frank, wouldn't you want an expert doing any surgery on you? I know I would.

Answer: Revision Rhinoplasty is one of the most challenging surgeries I perform. Revision Rhinoplasty surgery presents several unique challenges. There is scar tissue that makes exposure of underlying cartilage difficult. And, there can also be a paucity of cartilage remaining in your nose. For example, if you had Septoplasty performed during your initial Rhinoplasty, then there might be inadequate septal cartilage for grafting purposes. You should consult a qualified, experienced Rhinoplasty specialist with many favorable photos before you proceed. I hope this is helpful for you.
