Not a good candidate for Revision Rhinoplasty? (Photo)

The Silikon injections that were performed really complicates the future surgery. I would highly recommend returning to your original surgeon and discussing all of these issues.

Hi @Samurai_S! I recommend seeing an expert revision rhinoplasty specialist for an in person examination. There are several options for you that can be determined after examination. Best of luck, Dr. Nima!

In our practice we recommend revision rhinoplasty as a "last resort." Based on your photos, adding a bit more Silikon-1000 to your left sidewall may lead to a straighter, but wider nasal appearance. If you're looking for a narrower and straighter nasal appearance, revision rhinoplasty may be considered, depending on your examination. The presence of silikon-1000 in your nose would NOT preclude further surgery unto itself. Hope this helps. Dr Joseph

Revision rhinoplasty is more difficult than a primary rhinoplasty due to the fact there's been previous alterations to the normal anatomy, and scar tissue. The reason that your nose appears crooked is that you're right side has a convexity of cartilage just above the nasal tip, and you're left upper lateral cartilage is collapsed. Shaving down small amount of cartilage on your right side, and adding a spreader graft composed of your own cartilage would give you some improvement. There is no perfect nose. Your nostrils Will still be asymmetrical. It's very important to know how much cartilage is left over on the inside of your nose for grafting purposes
