7 months post op revision rhinoplasty and noting a huge depression in cartilaginous part of the nose? (Photo)

December 5, 2023
Asked By:Stereochemistry in New York, New York

second surgery was an open septorhino, and the last month I have noticed a depression in the cartilaginous part of the nose past the keystone area. i still have a small dorsal bump, which I’m fine with as its a naturally occurring imperfection but after the bump transitions into a very noticeable depression, which gives an impression of false upturn/supra tip break. What is the best way to fix this depression in cartilage? A closed revision in which a cartilage Onlay graft can be used?
