I had a rhinoplasty some years ago but my nose is asymmetric now. So i will have a secondary rhinoplasty. I think that during the operation you can clearly understand how the cartilage is placed, so i would like to have a photo to understand why my nose was so asymmetric and strange. Can a surgeon do it? Can i have a photo also when he has finished his work? Thanks.
Answer: Photo in surgery It is very common to take photos during surgery (assuming patient consent). These are generally for medical and educational purposes only Speak with your surgeon to discuss what you would like to have done regarding photo documentation.Sometimes the team is too focused on working on your nose to stop for too many photos

Answer: Intraoperative photos are of great help I have seen the ones from your previous operation, and in spite of their poor quality it is very clear your problem is congenital, this means you were born with extremely asymmetrical alar cartilages and specially their lateral cruras, which also suffer a certain degree of inversion/concavity.To achieve an acceptably symmetry (full symmetry never exists in nature and is unrealistic technically) the best and only option in such cases is strong tutorization by means of structure rhinoplasty grafting; in most cases the best choices is tailoring new, symmetrical, surgically controlled and customized lateral cruras and a new tip to replace the asymmetrical domes; eventually struts, tongue in groove maneuver or even caudal septum plasty may be indicated to obtain the degree of symmetry you wish.Seek the advice and hands of a serious professional who offers to you a time-consuming and expensive procedure; stay far from minimally invassive snake-charming procedures, synthetic implants, fillers, wrapped diced cartilage, etc.See the link below to find few cases of my own practice very similar to yours which I had the opportunity to operate successfully on, sharing a lot of common features with the technical problem you have posted. If you wish better grounded opinion well lit, focused and standard images have to be assessed: frontal, both lateral and both oblique views, also from underneath. Feel free to request any additional information from me.

Answer: Intraoperative Rhinoplasty photos Dear inbilico,You can definitely ask your rhinoplasty surgeon to take intraoperative photos of of your nose; this can be done at your request. You should sign a consent to allow your surgeon to take intraoperative photos and discuss you would like to review these post operatively. I recommend a in-office consultation with facial plastic or plastic surgeon to discuss your expectations. Best of luck!
