Male, age 30, how to correct a deviation in bone after rhinoplasty more than a year ago? (Photos)

Question

I am a male 30 years old and I had a rhinoplasty more than a year ago, it’s the most thing I regret ever, my nose got way smaller and it has dents in the bone, it’s become very narrow at the beginning of the bridge, I need help deciding what is the best way to fix it, should I do Filler or should I have a reversion rhinoplasty

Other than the small indentation along your right nasal bone, you appear to have a pleasing nasal appearance on front view. Depending upon your examination, microdroplet Silikon-1000 may be considered for filling in this indentation for a straighter and less distracting nasal appearance. Hope this helps! Dr Joseph

Hello! Thank you for your question.From the photos you provided it looks like you septum is really deviated and the nasal bridge is too wide compared to the nostrils. I recommend you a revision rhinoplasty surgery to get a more masculine and natural nose.I do not recommend filler at all (it is very risky).Best regards!

I'm sorry to hear that you're experiencing dissatisfaction with the results of your rhinoplasty. It's understandable that you're looking for a solution to improve your nose.

Regarding your question, both filler and revision rhinoplasty can be options to fix your nose, but which one is the best for you will depend on your specific situation.

Fillers can be used to address certain concerns such as small dents or asymmetries in the nose. They are a non-surgical option that involves injecting a substance, such as hyaluronic acid, into the nose to fill in areas that need improvement. However, fillers are not permanent and will require touch-up treatments every few months to maintain the desired results.

Revision rhinoplasty, on the other hand, is a surgical procedure that aims to correct the previous rhinoplasty. It can address issues such as a small nose or bone dents in the nose, and can also be used to refine the nose's shape and symmetry. However, revision rhinoplasty is a more invasive procedure, and it may take several months for the swelling to subside, and for the final results to be seen.

It's essential to consult with a board-certified plastic surgeon or facial plastic surgeon who has experience with revision rhinoplasty and fillers. They can evaluate your situation and recommend the best approach for your case. They may suggest filler as a temporary solution or recommend revision rhinoplasty to achieve the desired result.

In any case, it's important to have realistic expectations and understand that the final outcome may not be perfect, but rather an improvement on the previous result.

I hope this helps,
Best of luck !
