Would a 2nd revision rhinoplasty be beneficial for me given my thick nasal skin and previous negative experiences? (Photo)

Asked By:Michelle Vasquez in Ashley, Ohio

I had a septorhinoplasty 2+ years ago to mostly reduce a bulbous tip. however,post op my nose was crooked (wasnt prior to all this) and so in dec 2014 we did a revision to try to cut out any scar tissue and straighten it. almost a year out from my revision and my nose has formed even more scar tissue and is more crooked than before. my dr has done kenalog shots this time but has mentioned a 2nd revision. does this sound like a waste of time given ineffectiveness before or is it realistic?
