Indents and crooked nose 7 months after rhinoplasty. Do I need a revision? (Photo)

Dear Gentle440429,
I understand your concern. However, without a proper assessment, it would be difficult to determine what went wrong. It is best that you visit your plastic surgeon for further assessment or ask for a second opinion. Only after a thorough examination, you can get proper recommendations and advice.

Thank you for your question and I appreciate your concern. However, the nose can go through many changes during that first year, due to swelling that may take many months to subside. During the healing process, you might see some less than desirable changes to your nose, but it is possible those changes may correct themselves in time. If you are still unhappy at your one-year mark, that would be the time to meet with your surgeon to discuss a revision option. Always work with a very experienced, board-certified facial plastic surgeon when seeking rhinoplasty or revision rhinoplasty as these are the most complex plastic surgeries performed.

Hello,
Thank you for your question. I can appreciate the depressions/asymmetry in your photos. Without seeing you in person, it is difficult to determine the best treatment since this can result from a number of things. It's possible it's from where cartilage is routinely removed during the procedure.
A revision rhinoplasty can be done using the closed / scarless approach, and a surgeon may perform it while waiving the procedure fee in some cases depending on the circumstances. If you do elect to undergo a revision, I would suggest you find a surgeon who performs a lot of revision rhinoplasty. I wish you all the best.
