Am I going to need a second revision to fix the tip of my nose? (Photo)

July 13, 2021
Asked By:ffshopeful in Rochester, Minnesota

I had revision rhinoplasty 9 months ago to fix a residual hump on the bridge of my nose and to deproject the tip. The tip is now 4 to 5 times as big as it was prior to my revision. It looks terrible and I haven't seen any incremental improvement. What are the chances that this is still swelling? Am I likely to need a second revision to correct the bulbous tip?

Richard Mark Winters, MD says:

It's hard to tell from just one view, but it appears that your nostril asymmetry is the result of uneven nasal tip cartilages (higher dome on the right) and a small amount of right nostril retraction... this is most effectively and reliably addressed with a tip revision good luck
