I am almost one year post surgery, and have a very prominent polly beak. I am going in for revision in 2 weeks. What should i expect from surgery and will this polly beak come back? Very worried my nose has been ruined forever :(

Answer: Polly beak A polly beak can develop from scar tissue, or from inadequate resection of the dorsal septum or over-resection of the bony dorsum. A full analysis in person is necessary.

Answer: Nasal proportion is key Be sure you understand from discussion with your surgeon how he plans to alter the various proportions of the nose relative to the other. From your photograph it appears that in addition to the overprojection of the lower part of the bridge (the actual polybeak area), the upper part of your nose has been taken down too much and needs to be built back up some to match. Computer imaging can help you visualize this, and it's even possible to perform non-surgical rhinoplasty, injecting the upper part with filler to help you visualize this prior to actually committing to formal surgery.
