Latera & suture for post-rhinoplasty nasal valve collapse?

January 10, 2023
Asked By:lolahon in Grand Junction, CO

I have nasal valve collapse on one side from my rhinoplasty two years ago that has caused a dent and asymmetry. My surgeon suggested latera implant & sutures as an in office alternative to revision, but made no guarantees. Would latera improve the appearance? I’m afraid I’ll be able to feel/see the implant under my thinner skin. Also, in the case of nasal valve collapse after rhinoplasty, is the patient solely financially responsible for revisions made by the original surgeon?
