Who are some of the best revision rhinoplasty surgeons for males in Southern California Santa Barbara to San Diego?

Usually we think about waiting a full year for a revision, because then we really really know what to correct, *and by how much*. That time can often be cheated by a month or two without any harm. Six months is probably a bit short.Be sure to read the section in the "Learn more" link on how to stay out of trouble while searching for a rhinoplasty surgeon, and how to tell whether your previous surgeon should be performing your revision. Rhinoplasty is an exquisitely difficult operation to get right, and you should only have surgery if you are able to make yourself very confident in your surgeon's skills. 
I usually make computer morphs when I'm answering questions like this, to show the changes that are possible for a nose with a rhinoplasty, but of course you didn't post any photos. At the *very* bottom of the "Learn more" page is a link to instructions on taking and sending photos that are comprehensive and useful for an online consultation like this, in case you'd like a more complete evaluation.

There are a few things to look for in your revision specialist:1. Look at their before and after photos of revision rhinoplasty patients.  Find a nose similar to yours and look at the outcome2. See if they are a member of The Rhinoplasty Society; members need to perform a certain number of rhinoplasties each year to maintain membership.3. Have them perform a 3D simulation to ensure that they have the same "aesthetic" that you doRevisions are often recommended at 1 year, but breathing issues can prompt earlier attention if necessary.

Revision rhinoplasty surgeons? Those of us who have practiced for more than 30 years think we are the best! Look at revision rhinoplasty surgeons photos of very bad noses and pick several of these to see and you should not feel like it is a sales pitch if you find a good surgeon!

is more difficult than a primary rhinoplasty due to previous alterations to the normal anatomy, scar tissue formation, and now  Additional breathing issues.  Its important to wait at  least 1 year from the initial rhinoplasty before undergoing another rhinoplasty procedure.  Choose your second surgeon wisely based on extensive experience.

you have to find someone you feel comfortable with, honest and trustworthy. After the consult you should have a realistic expectations of the outcome. I have done many revision rhinoplasties with excellent results and there are other surgeons who are very good as well. I would wait closer to a year if possible. Best wishes
