Revision Rhinoplasty
For various reasons, the desired results may not be achieved after rhinoplasty surgery. A repeat aesthetic nose surgery performed in such cases is called Revision Rhinoplasty, also known as Secondary Rhinoplasty.
Facial rejuvenation aims to slow down and, to some extent, reverse the aging process while preserving a person’s natural appearance without making them look different. Properly planned plastic surgery procedures performed in the right measure may help a person age more softly and gracefully. The procedures that may be considered in this regard include:
Facial rejuvenation surgeries are divided into three types:
When is revision rhinoplasty performed?
Revision rhinoplasty is performed when the result after a previous nose surgery fails to achieve the desired aesthetic or functional outcome. These operations can generally be planned no earlier than one year after the first surgery.
Which procedures are most commonly performed in revision rhinoplasty?
Corrective rhinoplasty can often be improved with relatively small revisions, but in more severe cases the patient is evaluated in detail from both a functional and aesthetic perspective.
The most common problems addressed in revision rhinoplasty include artificial or unnatural-looking results related to the first surgery, irregularities in the nasal framework and cartilage-bone integrity, and breathing difficulties.
The most important point in planning a second surgery is that revision procedures should be performed by experienced physicians, which is highly important for the patient.
