Can I have a nose thread lift done due to my previous nose surgery and synthetic cartilage?

Asked By:val7709 in Birmingham, AL

I’ve had a closed rhinoplasty about 10 years ago now where the doctor had put some synthetic cartilage type to keep the tip lifted but after 2.5 years the cartilage had dropped from one side giving a slight droop and unevenness and also a pointier look to the nose. My question is can I have a nose thread lift done due to my previous nose surgery and synthetic cartilage?
