I had a rhinoplasty a month ago, i used to have a nice upturned tip but i couldnt breath and i was getting inflamation bc of allergies so i decided to do it and i asked to reduce the tip since it was bulbous, but i used to love the upturned tip, now i have a pollybeak and i dont want to look like this, i know i have to wait, but i was wondering if revision rhinoplasty since its only cartilage and skin have to be removed with anesthesia or it can be local and is faster to recover?

Answer: Anesthesia and facilities for rhinoplasty surgery Each surgeon will have their own preference for where and how to do rhinoplasty surgery. It’s definitely possible to do a full rhinoplasty with Out significant pain if the surgeon is willing to take their time. Many surgeons perform these procedures with patients under general anesthesia so they can focus on their work and not have to worry about the patientmoving speaking or being in discomfort while they’re doing very difficult complex procedure. Operating rooms are also equipped with the best equipment proper lighting, and many other attributes dead surgeons may find to be necessary in order to master their craft. Whether it can be done in the office and should be done in the office or two very different questions. The most important variable is always provider selection. I suggest you focus your efforts on finding the best provider then follow their suggestions or recommendations. Rhinoplasty surgery is not easy or straightforward and revision. Surgery is much more complex and far more difficult than primary procedures. Anybody seeking secondary rhinoplasty surgery should be very careful about provider selection. If a plastic surgeon has delivered, poor results during the primary procedure than that provider is probably not the right person to do revision work. I suggest patients have multiple in person, consultations with board-certified plastic surgeons, who have proven long-standing track record specializing in rhinoplasty surgery. During each consultation, ask each provider to open up their portfolio and show you their entire collection of before and after pictures of previous patients who have similar Facial or nasal characteristics to your own. And experienced plastic surgeon should have no difficulty showing you before and after pictures of at least 50 previous patients. Highly experienced surgeons should have access to 100 or preferably thousands of before and after pictures. Continue having consultations until you feel very confident you found the right provider. The facility and form of anesthesia should be dictated by the wishes of the provider. Best, Matt Hagstrom, MD
