What went wrong with my revision rhinoplasty? (photo)

Asked By:Mountainocean in Florida, FL

I had my 1st rhinoplasty in 2009, that worsened over the years. My revision was with a different surgeon in 2015. It's a lot bulkier now. There is a bulge on the left side of my bridge (more noticeable when I smile), there are lines alongside the base of my nose that are noticeable. Are these my nasal bones? My natural nose was skinniest at the bridge and now it seems to be the widest part, I hate it. Lastly the tip seems detached from the rest of my nose-what does it look like happened?

Answer: What went wrong, mostly, was inadequate work on your tip cartilages. See the morphs I made from your photos.
