Hi doctors, I am strong candidate for a revision rhinoplasty. My primary one left my nose too small and bony. So I need some grafting. I'm so scared as apparently MJ only had 2 operations. I don't need any removal just adding grafts... what's the risk that result will be like MJ and do you experience this frequently in the real life?
Answer: Revision Rhinoplasty Revision rhinoplasty requires exceptional skill on behalf of the surgeon and great communication with the patient about realistic goals and expectations.

Answer: Risk of nose like Michael Jackson? Risk of nose like Michael Jackson? If you have surgery by an experienced rhinoplasty surgeon the risk is zero! I have done several thousand rhinoplasties and never had a serious complication. MJ has many overdone rhinoplasties and that is why he had that result.

Answer: Revision rhinoplasty candidate A full set of pictures from all angles and an in-person examination to be required to make a determination about how best to proceed with the revision rhinoplasty. Revision rhinoplasty is more difficult than a primary rhinoplasty due to the fact that there has been previous alterations to the normal anatomy and scar tissue present. It's also important to know how much cartilage is left over on the inside of the nose for potential grafting purposes. Obtain your operative report from the primary rhinoplasty, that you give that to the new surgeon. Digital computer imaging would also be helpful to understand what can and cannot be accomplished with the procedure.

Answer: Risk of Michael Jackson Result after Revision Rhinoplasty There is no risk of a "Michael Jackson" result after revision rhinoplasty if you work with an experienced revision specialist. It is normal for a patient like you to be overanxious after a failed primary rhinoplasty. I know for a fact that Michael had far more than 2 nasal operations.
