Hello and thank you for your question. This would need to be determined by your overall medical stability from this as well as obtaining medical clearance from the physician team who manages your prolactinoma. If you obtain clearance, then I recommend that you seek consultation with a qualified board-certified rhinoplasty surgeon who can evaluate you in person.Best wishes and good luck.Richard G.

Patient safety is paramount. It is common practice for all patients undergoing any type of surgery to have a pre-operative assessment and anaesthetic review. If any concerns are identified, surgery will be delayed until the patient has been optimised.
The overwhelming majority of people with prolactinomas are managed with medication for the rest of their lives. Less than 10% of people may require surgery, especially if the tumor continues to grow and caused symptoms. When somebody needs surgery for a prolactinoma, many neurosurgeons will work with an otolaryngologist to perform a trans-nasal, trans-septal hypophysectomy. Gaining access to the pituitary gland through the nose would be much easier if somebody's nasal septum has never been worked on. Great question. I hope this helps, and I wish you well. Sincerely, Dr. Joseph
As long as you are medically cleared for your pituitary tumor you should be able to undergo a Rhinoplasty. You should consult with a Board Certified plastic surgeon with lots of experience performing Rhinoplaty.

Hello! Thank you for your question. As far as I can see from your photos It is possible to get a nose that is compatible with your face with a single operation, for this I recommend you rhinoplasty operation. It would be better face to face consultation. Best Regards!
In general, when people have a history of cold sores, they always recur in the same part of the lip. If you've had a cold sore in the area that you were concerned about now, you may wish to consider calling your doctor and asking for a prescription for valciclovir. Although I do not believe this...
The maneuver you are doing is called the Cottle maneuver. It opens the internal nasal valve passageway, which is composed of the upper lateral cartilage, septum, and inferior turbinate. Any disharmony between these structures may cause internal nasal valve narrowing and therefore airway...
It is possible to make it much smaller than it is now . However, as your surgeon mentioned that it takes longer for patients with thick skin to heal . Also, it’s not possible to expect unrealistic results such as a small nose when you have thick skin. With that said, I believe good outcome w...
