Revision rhinoplasty after 1.5 years? Need help.. Crooked nose? Radix reduction? Wide nose? Micro-hump? Thoughts?

jbee2424Mar 18, 2020
I got a rhinoplasty to primarily remove a dorsal bump, I always disliked my side profile, but loved the front of my face. My radix and tip were slightly raised. ( I have an appearance of asian/ hispanic mix) I miss my low radix as I think it enhanced my eyes. Radix feels high and as if there is a wedge between them. Also, the bridge of my nose is crooked and wider with a microhump in certain angles. Previously, my nose was small & petite, straighter from front.

It is unusual to have both septal extension graft and columella strut, which suggests that your surgeon tried very hard to support the tip. It sounds like the Gore-Tex implant is building the bridge projection. Removing the tip support in most instances leads to a decrease in pro...
