Asked By:Mkw32 in Rocky Mount, NC

I had a primary rhinoplasty 5 years ago with a Doctor in VA and he wasn't a facial plastic surgeon.Anyways, within that 5 years he has operated on me 2 more times apart from the original. He nor I was happy with the tip . I have found a really good facial plastic surgeon in Charlotte NC to do a revision summer of 2015. Only thing is I have noticed the tip of my nose turning slightly blue when it gets cold. Its only when it gets cold though. Should I be thinking twice about surgery?
