Hi <3 I did a primary rhinoplasty in 2017. I'd like to refine my tip. I've been told I have thick skin (middle eastern). I'd like to shave down the side and bring down the root of the nose and also get more definition on tip. What's possible here? Also I feel some days my nose is more swollen. I have a large bump (I think scar tissue) inside nostril as well. Would love advice on what to do to achieve my desired result (defined tip and shave down bridge of nose for more curved side profile).
Hi all <3 had rhinoplasty primary in 2017. I want to get a more defined tip, and be able to make my side profile reduced, and have the root of my nose start lower down from my forehead. I am 36 y/o, middle eastern, I think ultra thick skin and oily nose. What is an achievable result for me with revision rhinoplasty? I also have compromised breathing (I think nasal valve collapse). Any suggestions on good revision doctors? What is the pro/con of going back to my original provider?
I am currently 10 months post-rhinoplasty, and I have quite thick skin. In the first few months, the side of my nose shifted to the left, and I believe the tip also deviated in that direction. During a follow-up appointment, the pictures taken showed that the nose tip looked crooked. Since then, I have been taping it to the right. I will attach some pictures for reference. What could be causing this issue, and how can it be fixed? Do my nose and its appearance look any better in the most recent?
I had a complex septo-rhinoplasty revision using ear grafts 6 months ago. Currently my nose is uneven, lumpy, and lacks any tip definition. I have thick skin i was told. Is this swelling? Is there hope this result will improve much?
Hello, i have 1 year and 3 month from my last rhinoplasty , this was the first surgery for me , my problem is my nose is more wider , looking more fat and big, and not even straight , before my nose was slimmer, and in the middle i not feel the bone , i can see a little hard in it , i think is still swelling , i have it an open rhinoplasty , and 4 month ago i do 1 shot of steroid injection , but i can see is not help me , doctor tell me i have thick skin , he cant slim more, what i can do ?
1. Can tip refinement + narrowing, correcting a drooping tip upon smiling - be achieved for Thick skin - without increasing projection?. - e.g. with a medial crural tuck-up, done truncation and cephalic trim. 2. Can a septal extension graft be trimmed, or is it better to remove? Would removing it cause complications, (drooping tip returns, and expansion when smiling)? Is this likely to restore a closer look to original nose? 3. Can steroid injections help reduce the projection from the graft
Ten months ago, I underwent rhinoseptoplasty using rib cartilage. However, I'm dissatisfied with the result as my nose has become longer than it was before. Is it possible to undergo a third rhinoplasty after implantation, and how long should I wait before doing so? I can't accept myself because my nose is now as long as it was before the first surgery. Im 29 years old woman, weight 56 kg, thick skin type. Thx
Hi, had a rhinoplasty coming up to 3 years ago now, I still have swelling at times especially in the morning. My nose feels thicker on one side, I think I may have scar tissue which then makes the nose look wonky. Overall Im not happy how big my nose looks from a front view. Will a revision help.
Hi. I had a rhinoplasty done 3 years ago, and I have both functional and aesthetic concerns. Note the visible collapse on the right side of my nose. I also cannot breathe through the dented side, and I have to do the Cottle Maneuver to be able to breathe fully. I am a very active person and struggle to breathe properly during exercise! Am I a good candidate for a revision rhinoplasty? I was told I have thick skin, which may make a revision more challenging.
I have had this bump by my nostril since a few hours after cast removal. Just from looking, is it botched or scar tissue? I have very thick skin and was wondering if it is worth getting a revision? Or is there any other procedure to fix this
