Regarding the complexity of fixing the lower lateral cartilages and nose tip in a third rhinoplasty, it's important to understand that each revision procedure is unique and can vary depending on the specific circumstances. The complexity of the procedure will depend on factors such as the extent of the damage caused by the trauma, the previous surgeries you have undergone, and the condition of your nasal structures.

It's crucial to consult with your surgeon or seek a second opinion from another board certified plastic surgeon well versed in rhinoplasty.  They can guide you on the potential treatment options, including whether an "easy fix" is feasible or if there are other factors that need to be considered.

I hope this helps,
best of luck !
