Is it worth getting revision?

Question

About 6 month ago l got a primary rhinoseptoplasty, and the result is terrifying, absolutely not what I expected, I couldn't even give it a thought that my nose would look worse than before... I think there was too much cartilage removed in supratip zone (formal). Now this transition to the tip is very narrow. And it looks like it has a pinched deformity. Plus it looks downturned and not rotated enough. Also my nostrils and the bridge of the nose look asymmetrical ..…I will submit the pictures from every angle (the side profile pictures I’m gonna mirrow so it’s easier to see the difference between two sides). I really don’t like how it looks from the front. The last picture will me the table post op with the before

Based on what we see, you appear to have relatively thin nasal skin, and you had a large bump removed. We can see that you're a lot creases are a bit pinched and deep, and that your tip is a bit pointy and asymmetrical. Rather than undergoing a revision rhinoplasty surgery, please consider permanent non-surgical nose job treatments to add volume to your nose in select areas, which may lead to a less operated nasal appearance without the inconvenience, uncertainty, and cost associated with revision. Thank you. Sincerely, Dr Joseph

Hello and thank you for your question. Based on your photographs, you are a great candidate for a revision rhinoplasty. Maneuvers for your surgery would include nasal tip deprojection, tip elevation, among other maneuvers. With good surgical technique, you could have an outstanding result. I recommend that you seek consultation with a qualified board-certified rhinoplasty surgeon who can evaluate you in person.

Best wishes and good luck.
