Can thick nasal skin be reduced?

April 11, 2023
Asked By:mlps

Are there limitations on what can be done during revision rhinoplasties? I am wondering if a nose can only be fixed to a certain extent. I have thick nasal skin and have had 3 revisions. The first 2 left me with too much nostril showing. The 3rd revision seemed to take care of that but now my nose is more bulbous and wider it was originally. I am 2 1/2 years post op and wonder if it's too soon for another revision. Thank you
