I've had 2 rhinoplasty's. Both open. The second one, the dr destroyed my nose. It's too small and I ended up with a small vascular compromised spot near my incision. Pics provided shows right after surgery and then healed. I had a small red spot near my incision. It healed on its own without any intervention from my Dr. I'm scared to reopen my nose for revision.
