I am almost 1 year post operation and I am not able to breath from my nose, I do have full sinus all the time an I am using anti congestion nasal spry 5 times/ day ever since, I never had any problem with my sinus or breathing prior my surgery, can this be fixed with another surgery? This surgery was my second revision, I had 2 procedures done before.

Answer: Revision Rhinoplasty Closed and Atraumatic Technique Hello, thank you for your provided information and question,As you had completed your healing process, by a well- executed Revision Rhinoplasty your nose can be improved functionally and cosmetically for better. However, there is always a finite limite about how much a nose can safely be altered, and previous alterations should be considered as well.Closed and Atraumatic Technique will prevent tissue damage, provide you maximal healing, minimal edema&swelling and no scar on your columella.Best Regards,

Answer: Am I a Revision Rhinoplasty Candidate? Dear MrsJosef,Thank you for your question. Revision rhinoplasty is challenging for even the most experienced surgeons, and generally becomes harder after each subsequent surgery. The method of some rhinoplasty surgeons is to reduce the nose in all areas, which can cause breathing problems that are difficult to fix. You need to be evaluated and the cause of your airflow obstruction needs to be determined. Only then can anyone definitively answer your question, which is if another surgery is warranted. Good luck,Nirmal R. Nathan, M.D.
