Would a rhinoplasty revision help educe my nostril size and achieve my end goal? should i consider other procedures? (photos)

Ally1410Nov 3, 2022

I had a rhinoplasty last year and I am not completely satisfied with the result. My nose looks a bit wide and short. My tip was rotated and reduced but the size of my nostrils were not reduced. If I want to improve the look of my nose and reach a result that is similar to the ideal nose in the second picture, what procedure do I need to consider?

If you’re having breathing difficulties, the feasibility of revision would be how much septal cartilage you still have for grafting purposes. If you’re really unhappy. Get a copy of your operative report and consult with sev...

The feasibility of using ear cartilage in revision rhinoplasty depends on the quality of your conchal ear cartilage, and what repair needs to be performed. You appear to have an overprojected tip, and if you need external valve reconstruction with tip deprojection, ear cartilage grafting may be...

It's tough to sufficiently answer this question based on one photograph, but based on your photo and description (and assuming you are far enough out from your latest revision), there are a couple possiblities. If the notching is just related to the skin and scar, a scar revision may be...

Thank you for your question and for providing photos. Results from rhinoplasty can take up to a year or more to be fully visible as the nose can continue to shift during this period. Since it’s been a full year since your initial procedure, a revision can be considered to narrow the nostrils a...
