Nose deviated to the left. Do I need a revision? Should I give it another year? (Photo)

May 13, 2023
Asked By:mspeedwagon in Tampa, Florida

I'm about 20-months post a septo/rhino procedure that had in NYC. Unfortunately, I'm not happy with my nose as it's deviated to the left (clear in photo that it's asymmetric). Per the surgeon that performed it, there's swelling and repeated steriod injections may help. Unfortunately, I can only make it back to NYC once every 6 months. I'm wondering when if I'm in revision territory. Do I give it another year? Consult locally? Suggestions welcome.

Why does my nose look like this on the left? (photo)
Steven M. Denenberg, MD says:

Early postop swelling can certainly mask inadequacies after nose surgery. The photos to me don't show anything weird going on, other than the bridge wasn't modified perhaps as much as you needed. The way the photos are zoomed in on your nose, I can't tell whether there might be other areas to...

Overturned tip & nostril show, do you think it can be fixed? (Photos)
Steven M. Denenberg, MD says:

We'd need to know how long it's been since surgery, too, since we like to wait closer to a year after a nose operation before trying again. Finally, remember that any "revision" rhinoplasty (operating on a nose that has already had a rhinoplasty) is an exquisitely difficult operation to get...
