Collapsed tip, significant asymmetry, inverted V with no dorsal contour or bridge - Is revision a bad idea? (Photos)

Asked By:Dazzling333444 in Phoenix, Arizona

I’m 22, female, had my primary rhinoplasty 2 years ago. Thick skin, bulbous tip. Primary resulted in collapsed tip, significant asymmetry (I understand some is expected), inverted V with no dorsal contour or bridge at all. Necessary to have revision, confirmed by different facial plastic surgeon in same area. Pinched tip and collapse are very evident and primary surgeon recommended Latera. Looked into that and immediately no due to amount of complaints from patients and rejection rate. I understand the risk and the complexities of a revision and the simple truth that they can look worse and sometimes leaving it alone is best. But I am not qualified to formulate an opinion on that and I am seeking advice from those who are. Thank you.
