My nose looks thicker and more crooked/off center. Do I need a revision? (Photo)

Thank you for your question and photos. An in-person consultation is needed to accurately determine why your nose is becoming thicker and more crooked as time goes on. While swelling can last beyond the initial 12-month recovery period, it’s possible that a revision rhinoplasty is your best option at this point. I highly recommend scheduling an appointment with a board-certified facial plastic surgeon to figure out your next steps. Make sure to look for a surgeon with digital imaging and plenty of experience performing revision rhinoplasty procedures.

The decision to undergo rhinoplasty is a strictly personal one, as only you can weigh the pros and cons of the recovery and financial aspects relative to how much the nasal appearance bothers you. A rhinoplasty specialist will be able to comprehensively address the issues you have with your nose. While there are a variety of approaches and techniques employed by various surgeons, it is up to you to do your due diligence to find a rhinoplasty specialist in order to achieve the best results possible. Looking at computer-morphed images with your surgeon during consultation will give you a good idea of what is possible, and also give you a great chance to convey to your surgeon what you envision. @drdonyoo

It is hard to give you any advice or hints with limited information. The types of initial surgery, techniques used, materials used, your previous nose status, and the country or surgeon that you had surgery are necessary for proper advice. I think it is best for you to consult the initial surgeon and discuss options for revision. Thanks.
