The steps you need to take after a bad Rhinoplasty

As the central feature of the face, the nose is perhaps the most important component of facial aesthetic harmony. If you had rhinoplasty to improve your nose’s appearance but are not happy with the results, it’s understandable that you might be stressed out or unhappy. But before concluding that the outcome of your nose job is poor, it is important to give your body time to heal, because the appearance of the nose will change as the weeks and months pass.

First step after bad Rhinoplasty:

Your first step after bad rhinoplasty is to follow your surgeon’s postoperative advice. It is normal for your face to be puffy. By following your surgeon’s instructions, you should be able to reduce the swelling. Two weeks after rhinoplasty your appearance should improve, and after a month you will look even better. However, in some patients it can actually take up to a year for swelling to fully subside.

If after a year you are still unhappy with your appearance, it may be time to consider undergoing a secondary (revision) Nose job procedure possibly with a different surgeon.

Second step after bad Rhinoplasty

Should I ask my surgeon’s advice?

The answer to this question depends on the results of your procedure. If something is just a bit off, it might be OK to return to your surgeon and see if you can get a minor revision. However, if you are very displeased with the outcome and you think your surgeon may have contributed to the negative results, you should contact a second surgeon specifically, a facial plastic surgeon specializing in revision rhinoplasty.

Nose surgery is possibly the most difficult of all cosmetic surgeries to perform, and revision rhinoplasty is particularly difficult. For this reason, should you need to undergo a secondary rhinoplasty, it is very important that you find an expert.

Third step after bad rhinoplasty

Choosing a Revision Rhinoplasty Surgeon

Most secondary rhinoplasties are complex procedures involving an invasive method called the open approach. The procedure requires advanced surgical skill and may require harvesting cartilage for grafts from other areas of the body.

Many facial plastic surgeons in Iran are dual board certified in facial plastic surgery as well as otolaryngology (ear, nose and throat surgery). These surgeons have an in-depth knowledge of the nose’s internal structures and external appearance and are trained to know how to alter each, as needed, during rhinoplasty. Facial plastic surgeons typically complete a residency in otolaryngology or general surgery and then receive advanced training in facial plastic surgery.

Most general plastic surgeons do not receive as much training in each of these specific areas, as they also have to focus on plastic surgery procedures of the body.

One of the Iranian surgeons’ skills is a revision rhinoplasty technique that both improves his patients’ appearance and restores proper breathing. They have extensive experience dealing with functional problems as well as a multitude of aesthetic challenges.
