Male & nose looks extremely narrowed & feminine - was my nose botched?

Question

Hi, I am a male patient who underwent a rhinoplasty 7 months ago for a deviated septum as well as cosmetic. The goal was to narrow the bridge. 7 months in and my nose looks extremely feminine and narrowed. I feel like the lower half of my nose was not preserved and my nose does not belong on my face. I understand I can still be dealing with swelling, but my nose looks off. Would a revision help?

Hello, As swelling reduces with time the nose becomes more refined, so there will be changes, but it seems like they will be contrary to what you are hoping to achieve. To answer your question directly, yes, a revision can give back some of the masculine features that you are looking for. A very important aspect to successful rhinoplasty is the consultation. This is when you can review your desired outcomes with the surgeon and make sure you are both on the same page. Computer morphed imaging is extremely helpful in this communication process. This is also true for revisions. Make sure to have a thorough consultation and review the desired outcomes with a true rhinoplasty surgeon, one who is specialized in rhinoplasty and revision rhinoplasty. Good luck!
