Permanent Nerve damage 4 years postop Rhinoplasty - advice?

January 22, 2022
Asked By:Nice23148 in Toronto, Ontario, Canada

I had rhinoplasty 4 years ago and I have no feeling in most of my nose. So this permanent Nerve damage is the fault of the physician or just bad luck? Does this mean going into a facelift I should worry about the same thing happening or completely unrelated?
