Revision Rhinoplasty

Revision rhinoplasty is a surgical procedure performed to refine or correct the results of a previous rhinoplasty. It may address both aesthetic and functional concerns.

In some cases, desired outcomes may not be achieved after the first procedure, or structural changes may occur over time. Revision procedures aim to improve balance and function.

What is Revision Rhinoplasty?

Revision rhinoplasty is a secondary procedure performed after an initial nose surgery. It involves reassessment of bone, cartilage, and soft tissue structures.

Planning is typically more detailed due to changes from previous procedures.

Situations That May Require Revision

• Incomplete correction of nasal hump
• Deformity in nasal tip
• Asymmetry
• Dropped nasal tip
• Ongoing breathing concerns
• Structural irregularities

How is it Performed?

The procedure is typically performed under general anesthesia. Structural elements are refined to improve both appearance and function.

Cartilage grafts may be used in some cases to support reshaping.
