I had rhinoplasty 16 years ago, which shaved down the hump in middle of my nose. The dr at the time didn't do anything to make my nose shorter. (I believe he should have)... 16 years later I feel like my nose is still big and want revision. I'm hoping it will make me look better. Just hoping something can be done since I know revisions are more risky.

Answer: Revision rhinoplasty Hi there. Thanks for your question. You are a good candidate for a revision rhinoplasty if you are interested in changing the appearance of your nose. Your is overprojected & too long. Advanced rhinoplasty techniques can be used to deproject your tip. Revision rhinoplasty is more complicated so make sure to see a specialist. Good luck. Best, Dr H

Answer: Overprojected Nose after Primary Rhinoplasty Thank you for your post and congratulations on researching your options to further enhance your nasal appearance. You are correct. Your nose appears too long and overprotected despite an otherwise successful surgery. In my view you are an excellent candidate to consider revision rhinoplasty via an open approach for improvement of your nasal tip and projection. De-projecting your dorsum, tip and middle vault requires advanced rhinoplasty techniques, along with a reduction in the caudal length of your septum. Tip cartilage reconstruction and/or overlap will be required. A complete examination in person with a revision specialist can help you understand how to accomplish your goals and review your best options. Please contact my office if I can be of any additional assistance or review revision cases online. Best wishes.
