Is a Rhinoplasty reversible if the person is unhappy with the results? Could a doctor use fillers or other techniques to return the nose to it's original form?

Answer: Rhinoplasty reversal I typically counsel my patients to wait about a year before considering any additional surgery to their nose. The reason for this is that there is swelling that can take approximately a year to resolve and give what is close to a final result for the nose. I would use caution when considering fillers to the nose. While they can fill some defects in the nose to give the appearance of something permanent, they carry with them their own set of risks that should be thoroughly discussed with you prior to undergoing the injection. Make sure that you follow up with your rhinoplasty surgeon throughout this process so they can monitor your nose for changes and address any concerns you have along the way. Best of luck.
