I know what everyone is thinking, why would I possibly get another rhinoplasty procedure done by the same surgeon if I did not like the results, here is the story. I had a nose job about 3 years ago, and it came out pretty nice, a few months later I had a sinus infection so I kept touching at my nose and picking at it, U name it, eventually I messed it up a little (a lot). side info: my plastic surgeon is a very well known one in NYC. That is why I trust him. Please help.
