Is a third nose job safe enough is a question that needs to be answered in person by your third surgeon. The risk versus reward ratio must be weighed to make sure that you're making the right decision. Digital computer imaging can also be helpful

Your photos appear to reveal a wide nasal appearance and a persistent dorsal hump. If you are considering revision rhinoplasty for a narrower, smaller, and less distracting nasal appearance, consider consulting with several rhinoplasty specialists. It may be helpful to bring your prior operative reports and preoperative photos to your consultation. Hope this helps! Dr Joseph

...as long as the surgeon and procedure are "safe" and reliable; seems your nose still shows imperfections and unsolved issues, specially a remain of the hump and a very poor result at the tip, without definition, oversized, too projected etc.Seek the advice of a real expert in revisions.

Each revision with Rhinoplasty gets riskier. However, I do agree that your nose can be refined, and that you're being realistic. As such, you can consider a third revision by an experienced Rhinoplasty surgeon. At your consultation, your risks and benefits should be detailed so you can make a good decision. It's difficulty to tell you specifics without examining your nose. Best of luck!

Certainly there is risk to all surgery but a second revision rhinoplasty is usually safe if the surgery is done by an experienced revision surgeon. The timing of n revision is very important; it does appear that you still have some swelling from the last operation.
