I got into accident and my nostrils leaned towards left side. So I got a rhinoplasty. The Surgeon used my rib cartilage to restructure my nose. But now I really hate my nose.My side profile looks awful. Is it possible to get revision rhinoplasty to look like my nose before the surgery?? I'm aware: revision rhinoplasty comes with some risks. What's the procedure to get my nose done to look like first photo??
