Is there any way to correct nose job related scar tissue?

Everyone forms scar tissue after rhinoplasty surgery - as a revision rhinoplasty specialist, we see scar tissue present in all noses that have had previous surgery. If excessive scar tissue causes a visible irregularity after rhinoplasty, triamcinolone acetonide 2.5mg/cc may be considered by your surgeon, depending on your examination.Hope this helps.Dr Joseph

Noses heal very differently than a lot of other body parts.  Depending on your tissue type scar tissue formation can be a real issue.  This tends to be in thick skinned individuals. Unfortunately there is no real good solution.  Reoperation often leads to worse results and more scar tissue.  Injections of steroids and 5FU are also available but you must be very careful as they may thin out the overlying skin and cause a host of other issues.  Many times you need to wait years for it to slowly improve.  Tough problem

Scar tissue after rhinoplasty can be improved.  The treatment depends on where the scar tissue is.  If the scarring is beneath the skin, this will show more in patients with thin nasal skin.  Treatment may consist of fillers or revision surgery to place fascial grafts in areas where the scarring has caused a visible contour irregularity. If there is external scarring (which is very rare) of the skin, fractionated laser can be an effective treatment.  Dermabrasion can also be helpful.  See a revision rhinoplasty specialist to evaluate your nose in detail and make recommendations.
