Revision Rhinoplasty

Secondary (or tertiary) surgeries performed when the desired result is not achieved after the first rhinoplasty or breathing problems persist are called Revision Rhinoplasty.

What are the challenges?

• There are skin adhesions (scar tissue).
• Normal anatomy is distorted.
• Cartilage reserve is depleted. Usually, cartilage grafting from the ear or rib is required in these surgeries.

In experienced hands, revision rhinoplasty can resolve patients' unhappiness and provide a natural, functional nose.
