I recently had rhinoplasty and am very unhappy with the results.My surgeon said he would do it again but i worry he could end up messing it up more. He placed a radix graft which i dont like and made my tip appear shorter and theres to much nostril show.i think removing the radix graft and shaving the bridge down a little bit more would be easy but im scared about the tip part.Id want it lengthened and less nostril show how hard is this? its not "severly" over rotated but it still is.
