I had rhinoplasty 2 years ago to have 3 things done: 1) Dorsal hump reduced 2) Septum shortened 3) Nostrils reduced I am now starting to regret 1) and 2). Reason being, the smaller dorsal hump seems to accentuate the bulbessness of my nasal tip, and by shortening my septum, my nostrils actually appear more pronounced.
I would like to know whether it is possible to get my dorsal hump back to how it was, and to have my septum lengthened slightly so that my nostrils do not look so upturned. If so, how effective would the results be?
Answer: Rhinoplasty repair - fixing a poor nose job Rhinoplasty procedures can improve structural dimensions of the nose. In this particular case, the structural components of the nose were reduced, now necessitating a secondary rhinoplasty to build the dorsum and nasal tip back. This may require harvesting of autologous cartilage to improve structural support and is quite possible.

Answer: You could consider a Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty to improve the appearance of your nose. You could consider having an Injectable Filler treatment to add volume back to your nasal bridge, and to try to lower your retracted nostrils.

Answer: After a rhinoplasty, you can never go back but noses can be rebuilt It is not uncommon for a patient seeking revision rhinoplasty to ask for their old nose back. We can use their old photos to see what they desire but once surgery has been performed, it cannot be reversed. What we can do is rebuild the nose to restore the profile as well as other areas of the nose. I suggest you seek out a specialist in revision Rhinoplasty for an opinion about further surgery.

Answer: Things to consider for revision rhinoplasty Not having seen your before surgery photos or knowing what was done at surgery one cannot say whether the surgery was performed poorly or the approach chosen did not cover the presenting problems. Unfortunately you cannot go back in time to where you were before surgery or reverse parts of the previous surgery. The photos you submitted only have a left side view which limits any assessment I could make. With those limitations in mind I can say that from the photos the current issues appear to be:
