Will a revision rhinoplasty help me? (Photo)

jorog512Oct 24, 2023
It has been 14 months since my rhinoplasty. Overall, I notice a difference in the appearance but it is not as dramatic as I was hoping for. I didn’t want a Turkish nose job, but I still think my nose tip is bulbous and overall too large for my face.

I would try Kenalog first to see if it’s possible to shrink the area. It’s possible that there is still some residual swelling 2 years post op. Otherwise, you can try filler or a revision rhinoplasty. I hope this helps, Best of luck !

Implant deviation does not seem trivial. It is obviously deviated to one side. Repeated deviation of the implant is often caused by asymmetry of the nasal bone, and the degree of asymmetry must be determined through nasal CT. If the asymmetry is confirmed, then, the use of 3D-printed implant...
