I have had revision rhinoplasty 4 month ago to refine the bridge and the tip. I'm not happy with the upper portion of the nose bridge. My surgeon told me he could rasp the side of the nasal bone to make it narrower. he told me that breaking my nose a second time is not a good idea.. Im very septic about it. What do you think i should do? Thank you very much for your answers

Answer: Revision rhinoplasty again at one year The bridge line appears very flat and square top-ish, therefore an open roof may be present. To confirm an open roof requires an examination of the nose. To close the open roof requires osteotomies placed in the nasal bones which is acceptable after primary, secondary, or a tertiary rhinoplasty. Best to seek out a very experienced surgeon for best results. Revision rhinoplasty is a very difficult endeavor, and one of the most difficult procedures to perform correctly in the entire field of cosmetic surgery.

Answer: Widened nasal bridge Widened nasal bridge can occur postoperatively and is due to residual bone that is left following rasping of the dorsum; this bone can fall into the sides of the nose and not completely removed; following resolution of your swelling, this material can then form back into a solid bone; this bone can easily be rasped out in the office under local anesthetic solution without the need for a full anesthetic surgery and unnecessary costs.
