Can my Nose Be Restored to the Original Rhinoplasty by a Revision Rhinoplasty Specialist? (Photos)

September 14, 2011
Asked By:SenorCommando in Margate, Florida

I made the mistake of having a tip revision thinking it was uneven. Sadly my doctor trimmed the caudal/anterior ridge of the Left alar cartilage and he trimmed small amounts of tissue on the Left columella side. A year later I asked the same doctor to fix my nose and repair what he cut away, but instead this time he resected cartilage on the right side and he trimmed the tissue on the Right columella side. Now my nose looks pointy and overprojected, and before I had a masculine and chisled tip.
