What to do if I had a bad rhinoplasty?

January 31, 2024

If you feel that the result of your rhinoplasty is not adequate, the first thing to do is to talk directly with the surgeon who performed the surgery, but you should also know the options available to improve the result.

If the result of the rhinoplasty has compromised the functionality of the nose, the patient does not breathe well or adequately, it is most likely that a new surgery is needed to correct the problem, it is called secondary or revision rhinoplasty, if the result only compromises the aesthetic part of the result the patient has some options, in the case of prolonged inflammation, thickening of the dorsum or nasal tip the placement of local corticosteroid can solve the problem.

Finally, if there are problems that do not depend on inflammatory processes but rather on asymmetries or irregularities, it is very likely that they can be corrected with the use of liquid fillers such as hyaluronic acid and thus avoid further surgery.
