Had a dorsal hump removed May 2016 (so a year ago) and the last half of these past twelve months I have a very noticeable dent on the middle where the bridge of my nose is. Makeup won't hide it....it literally is a dent. Do I have an open roof deformity? Am I going to need revision?
Answer: Consultation Needed Hello,I am sorry about the dent in your nose. The best way to truly evaluate what it is and how to fix it is to make a consultation with your board certified facial plastic surgeon. They will be able to answer all of your concerns and questions. Best of luck,

Answer: You will need evaluation Visible dent can be many things. Only in person exam will reveal its true cause. Whatever the cause another procedure will be needed to correct or diminish it.

Answer: Post Rhinoplasty Dorsal Deformity Thanks for your post. You would need a complete examination and review of your surgical history and recovery to understand exactly what is going on. You may have an open roof deformity on your dorsum, but it is difficult to tell without an in-person examination. Did you injury your nose after surgery? This may be a result of post surgical injury resulting in a graft dislocation or poor bone healing. This could also be related to skin issues from surgical injury or post operative steroid shots. Consult with your primary surgeon for recommendations or seek other opinions. You may need to consider revision. Best wishes.

Answer: Rhinoplasty Hello and thank you for your excellent question. Based on the photo, you appear to have either a superficial soft tissue, or deep cartillage or bone defect. We would need to take a look at your before and afters, and operative note to really get an idea of what the issue is. Of course, you will need an in-person consultation to evaluate you for this procedure. Preoperative visualization and surgical simulation with the Crisalix system may help with your decision. Any treatment plan should be based on a detailed discussion with equal input from both you and your surgeon. Make sure you specifically look at before and after pictures of real patients who have had this surgery performed by your surgeon and evaluate their results. The most important aspect is to find a surgeon you are comfortable with. I recommend that you seek consultation in person with a qualified board-certified plastic surgeon. Good luck!
