Can Rhinoplasty Make Nose Bigger?

Hello, and sorry to hear you are not happy with your procedure. It is possible to augment the nose with a revision rhinoplasty. This would require a revision rhinoplasty specialist. It may not be possible to get your nose exactly how it was before your procedure, but improvements can likely be made. I would recommend a consultation with a board certified facial plastic surgeon who specializes in revision rhinoplasty and uses computer imaging software. This will allow them to morph a photo of you and give you an idea of how the final result may appear. I would recommend waiting one year after your initial procedure before considering any revision work. I hope this helps, and I wish you the best of luck.

In traditional Rhinoplasty, surgical instruments known as rasps and osteotomies (hammer and chisel) are used to reshape the nasal bones by removing the hump and/or narrowing the nasal bone width. These tools are relatively imprecise and their use can lead to contour irregularities, etc. if not used in the proper manner. Recently, a technology that uses sound waves has been developed to contour nasal bones in a precise and far less traumatic way when compared to traditional techniques. Ultrasonic, or Piezo, Rhinoplasty is now the most advanced technology available for minimally traumatic nasal bone reshaping and hump removal during Rhinoplasty. There will be hardly any bruising and swelling which will make the recovery period a lot easier for the patient.

    Cartilage grafts may be indicated to restore volume to the nose if you feel it is too small.  Find the plastic surgeon with ELITE credentials who performs hundreds of rhinoplasties each year.  Kenneth Hughes, MD Los Angeles, CA
