1 year post op Rhinoplasty, structure has changed , it feels swollen especially around tip. Revision options? (photos)

Hi @Phenomenal598818. I recommend seeing an expert revision rhinoplasty specialist for an in person examination. There are several options for you that can be determined after examination. Best of luck, Dr. Nima!

Hello, and thank you for providing photos along with your question. Based on your images and the issues you mentioned, your nose may not have properly healed due to the accumulation of scar tissue, which may have caused prolonged swelling. To know for sure, I recommend scheduling an in-person consultation with a reputable board-certified facial plastic surgeon, particularly one with a strong rhinoplasty portfolio. Such experts will have a deep understanding of the nose’s functional and aesthetic elements while having an aesthetic eye for balance and symmetry. Your surgeon will give your nose a thorough evaluation, determine your eligibility for secondary rhinoplasty, recommend the best surgical approach, and ensure the best possible outcome.

Hi, thank you for the question. In general, mostly, we get good results (patients are quite happy). Sometimes, during surgery, we -as the surgeons-think that they are the right steps/procedures for the nose. But, appearence/result may differ..(general condition, fibrosis/scarring/reaction of tissues, too much conservative approach/or too radical/traumatic app etc..) The skin and subskin tissues may also make a strong negative effect..(showing the new framework?).. Many factors are related with final results. Do not worry. Speak to your surgeon first. If the consultation is not enough for you, you may think to get another detailed info. My opinion, A revision surgery planning would help you. Regards. Cem Altindag The Nose Clinic
