Can I have a revision rhinoplasty under the mentioned circumstances? (photos)

Asked By:Tintin54 in Coffeyville, Kansas, États-Unis

I had a nose surgery where my nose was made way too narrow. Additionally, I had a circulation problem that didn’t lead to complete necrosis, but the skin on the sides of my nasal tip died and is heavily scarred. I also have white spots on the sides of my nasal bridge, although the skin feels normal. However, my thin skin seems to adhere closely to the underlying structures. Despite these circumstances, is it usually possible to perform a revision surgery to widen my nose with cartilage grafts?
