Do I need a 3rd rhinoplasty, or is this as good as my nose can be? (Photo)

Question

I had a rhino 10/2020 and a revision 12/21. My doctor is great and I really trust her— I just don’t know if it’s not possible to achieve the results I want, or if my questions and concerns are valid. I’m looking for outside opinions :) My bulbous tip/beak never shrunk post-op, despite many rounds of kenalog. I also have these “wings” or ridges on the sides of my nose that popped up after my first and now second procedure. In your opinion, what is happening here?

Hi @mapletreecardgian. Thank you for sharing your photos. I recommend seeing an expert revision rhinoplasty specialist for an in person examination. There are options for you that can be determined after examination.

Best of luck,

Based on the posted photos I recommend 3rd revision full rhinoplasty, would be nice to see any before or after 1st rhinoplasty photos. Fees $12,000. Best to virtual consult with...
