Third rhinoplasty - how long should I wait before attempting another procedure?

slipperyslope123May 9, 2023
almost 1 Year post revision rhino. At 3 weeks post op had direct trauma to nose tip which changed entire bottom half of nose. Surgeon says he may be able to help me with one side, but not the other. I think both sides need to be addressed. Should I seek other opinions? And how long more should I wait before attempting another procedure? Nose looks unnatural, I will never be ok with this.
