Skin on Nose is Flexible, Rubbery and Lacking Normal Elasticity After a Revision Rhinoplasty

although it is hard to tell without seeing your pictures, you may be experiencing some early post-operative skin changes which could potentially resolve - in the meantime if you any concerns you should contact your surgeon

It is difficult to say what this means exactly without seeing your nose. It's also not clear how long ago your surgery was. It can take over a year for the nasal skin to redrape after decreasing the size of the nose. In the meantime, there may appear to be redundant nasal skin.

I agree with the other doctors...revision rhinoplasty healing times are usually longer than the original rhinoplasty procedure.  It can take up to a year to have all the swelling subside.  With that said, the look and the function of the nose take a little more priority than the feel.  If it looks good and you have no problems breathing, a little patience will go a long way.  Usually the feel of the nose will come after all the healing is finished.

It is impossible to evaluate you through a description.  A full exam is cirtical to establish what your concerns are and discuss possible options for treatment.

It is impossible to tell you without seeing you in person and also knowing how long ago you had your procedure.  Initially, the nasal skin has some swelling or edema which makes it look and feel different.  With time this resolves as the nose gets more defined and firm.  However, if too much of the cartilage or bone has been removed, there is a chance you will be left with "too much" skin for the new framework.  This must be assessed in person and with your surgeon. No formal decisions should be made until one year after your surgery.

Most of these issues get better with time and you should see continued improvement if you are early in your recovery. However, if this has been persistent months after your procedure, the true nature of your issues can only be determined by your original surgeon or after one year from your original procedure.

Best of luck
