Numbness after rhinoplasty - is there any chance the sensation will return?

January 2, 2024
Asked By:Netters6 in Overland Park, Kansas

I am 2 years post rhinoplasty and have yet to regain feeling in the tip of my nose and upper front teeth area. Is there any chance it will return? I’m needing a revision as well, but don’t want to make the numbness worse by having another surgery. Thanks
