What can be done to revise crooked results and breathing issues 2 years after rhinoplasty? (photo)

August 13, 2024
Asked By:Bright87853 in England, United Kingdom

I had a revision rhinoplasty 2 years ago aiming to straighten my nose, improve breathing, and enhance my nasal bridge. Unfortunately, none of these were achieved; the septoplasty wasn't strong enough, so my nose reverted to its crooked shape, causing breathing issues. The FDC graft now shows severe irregularities visible through the skin. My surgeon refused further work. Can anything be done to fix this?

Richard G. Reish, MD, FACS says:

Hello and thank you for your question. I don’t recommend having rasping performed under local anesthesia. This will usually make the nose look better for 1-2 months and then it will actually get much worse long-term afterwards, with contour irregularities developing. This is because the skin o...
