Hello, I am seeking a revision to improve nostril show and hanging columella? What procedures would need to be done to decrease my nostrils show? Also, I have a graft between my eyes that moved and makes my nose look crooked.

Answer: Revision rhinoplasty Most of what you're interested in can be addressed with relatively straight forward rhinoplasty work. However, to give you better advice we would need some profile photos.I would definitely focus your efforts as far as consultation goes with board-certified facial plastic surgeons. The cartilage on the bridge can be repositioned or replaced or shaved depending on what is needed. The hanging columella may not be hanging as much as it appears if there is significant alar retraction.Chase Lay, MD

Answer: Revision rhinoplasty The graft needs to be repositioned. The hanging columella can be treated with surgery on the anterior columella and by unfurling the ala rims slightly. Please obtain an in-office consult with an experience Board-Certified Facial Plastic surgeon. Best wishes.
