Revision Rhinoplasty for short nose - how complex would the surgery be? (photos)

H
helloeveryone13Mar 21, 2022

Hi! I’ve had a rhinoplasty done 6 months ago (that left me with a too short nose. I’ve tried to get used to it but sadly I do not like what I see in the mirror. I was wondering if it’s possible to lengthen my nose as it appears in the „after” picture? If so how complex would the surgery beand if I could ask for an estimated price? Thank you in advance!
