  7. IS IT POSSIBLE TO DEROTATE...

Is it possible to derotate my tip and lengthen my nose and give more definition to my bridge? (Photo)

September 28, 2023
Asked By:rhinoplastyrevision1404 in Adelaide, South Australia, Australia

I had my primary rhinoplasty 6 weeks ago and I am devastated. From the frontal view, my nose has gotten much wider due to my nasal bridge being shaved down too much. My tip is too upturned and as a result, my nostrils are always on show. I asked for my nose to still look like me, but have been left looking like an alien. Ideally, I'd like to return to as close to my old nose as possible, how soon can I get my revision and what should I ask for/prepare for? :)

Hello! I'm not sure exactly what this is but it sounds to me like you have ischemia of your nasal tip, especially if you had thin skin before and had a revision to it, suggesting that the skin may have compromised blood flow. Lasers and LED can definitely help. If it is due to ischemia,...
