I Need Nose Job Revision: What to Do Next?

If you want to ensure that your next nose job provides you with a successful result, this time trust the right

surgeon, prepare your body and be financially ready.

You could probably be observing asymmetry, hear snoring

when you breathe, a bad nose tip or simply just ending up

with an awkward nose in general. You could be angry at the

world or your surgeon but you can also take a more positive

approach that will bring you better change; something that

is sure this time.

Naturally the next step that you need to do is to approach

your surgeon about it. Show him where the problem is and

ask him what his possible corrective plan is. You can even

discuss with him about the cost of the revision especially

when the problem was clearly made out of poor aesthetic

judgment.

previous surgeon, it is high time that you sharpen you’re

sleuthing skills to scout for the surgeon who is experienced

in performing nose job revisions. You can always turn to the

internet to find a listing of the best surgeons who have this

specialization.

Forums are always a good avenue to find honest and raw

reviews from other patients. They can be very candid about

their opinions and they can help by pointing you to the right

surgeons. But these discussions can also inform you on the

surgeons who are not providing the quality results that you

deserve.

disappointment rather than a relief, then it’s probably time that

you consider get a revision rhinoplasty done. But how do you

get right back when things just got all messed up for you? Here

Reasons why women get rhinoplasty revisions..,

When you have narrowed down your choices

and decided to go for a consult, you should

always ask for before and after photos of primary

rhinoplasties as well as revisions. This way you

can get a good look at how his works look like

and whether this suits your preferences.

It is best that you approach several nose

surgeons so that you can compare as to which

one can give you the best treatment option.

Another way to ensure that your corrective nose

job turns out better than the first; you must also

prepare yourself to be healthy. The condition of

your body will determine the healing process

and the result.

Avoid cigarettes, alcohol, vitamin E and certain

foods that impair blood clotting. This can lead to

poor wound healing and scarring, some of the

major factors that also led you to get that

corrective procedure in the first place.

You must also be prepared financially because

secondary rhinoplasties cost more than a first

time procedure. The reason for this is that it

takes more skill and careful precision to repair a

previous nose job. The usual cost of revision

nose job in Sydney can run around $10,000 on

top of other miscellaneous fees.

If you want to ensure that your next nose job

provides you with a successful result, this time

trust the right surgeon, prepare your body and

be financially ready.

5 Reasons Why Women

Get Rhinoplasty Revisions

Rhinoplasty remains to be among the top 5

cosmetic procedures requested by women in

2011 along with likes of breast augmentation

and tummy tucks.

Successful results are able to provide women

with enhanced nose that are more appropriate

for their faces, and boost in their self-confidence

as well. However there are unfortunate cases

where women come in to get revision

rhinoplasty done.

Revision rhinoplasty, also known as secondary

rhinoplasty, is a special branch of nose surgery

that is aimed at correcting poor and untoward

results. This is considered to be a rather

difficult procedure requiring more skill and

expertise from a surgeon which is why it is

also more expensive.

There are different reasons why women come

in to get rhinoplasty revisions done. Here are 5

of the common ones they have.

1. Botched Primary Rhinoplasty

Results

In unfortunate cases, some women end up

trusting their noses to poorly competent

surgeons. This leads to botched results such as

a pinched look, a hooked nose, a hanging

columella, scooped or severely angled.

Poor judgment leads to poor results which

could end up giving the nose a more awkward

appearance than it had before surgery. The

over-operated look is something that women

complain about because they don’t want the

world to know that they had something done.

These women want to go for the subtle results

that also create significant improvements.

2. Complications

Rhinoplasty consists of a number of

complications, from the bleeding, infections to

more severe cases such as skin necrosis. A

secondary surgery would be necessary in

order to correct the affected nasal structures,

to stop the progression of a recurrent problem

that stem from the surgery. If not attended to

promptly this could lead to more serious

complications which could lead to permanent

disfigurement of the nose.

There are different reasons why women get rhinoplasty revisions..,

3. Asymmetry

Asymmetry is one of the common

problems that drive women to get a

revision done. There are times when a

surgeon fails to fashion the nose more

appropriately that it becomes balanced on

both sides. This could result to imbalanced

nostrils or a crooked nose. However most

surgeons would suggest to wait for a

couple of months to a year before getting

anything done yet again because this

could very well be just post-surgical

swelling.

4. Complaints over functionality

(e.g. breathing problems)

One of the common complaints that

women have after rhinoplasty are issues in

breathing due to structural problems.

There are various factors causing this but

primarily this is a result of 2 major causes

which is unrecognized pre-existing nasal

conditions and over resection of nasal

cartilages leading to a decrease in the

diameter of the nasal valve area. Women

also have revision for this reason because

structural problems also resulted to them

snoring in their sleep.

5. Dissatisfaction with earlier

results

Some women also become simply

dissatisfied with the results even though

there is really nothing wrong with it

overall. Those who have body dysmorphic

disorder would have these concerns

usually resulting to them coming back for

multiple rhinoplasty revisions.

Five Qualifications of a Good

Rhinoplasty Surgeon

1. Proper Training, Education and Specialization

You would want your surgery to be performed by someone who is competent to

do so after obtaining a full course, extensive training, and specialization. Knowing

what you surgeon specializes on will allow you to know if he is really qualified to

help you with your specific problem.

2. Board Certified

Did you know that in some regions it is legal for any doctor with a valid medical

license to practice cosmetic surgery with or without surgical training? That is why

it is important to ensure that your cosmetic surgeon is board certified because

this can ensure that your cosmetic surgeon has the training, skills and experience

to perform a specific cosmetic procedure.

3. Good Deal of Experience

Experience would help ensure that you are under competent hands. But when

considering a cosmetic surgeon, make sure that he has good experience in

specifically performing rhinoplasty surgeries.

4. Good Reviews from Past Clients

Sometimes a surgeon can make himself look good with flowery details about

what he can do. You can only be more certain about this when you hear the

satisfied accounts of previous patients.

5. Excellent Work Quality

In relation to what has been said earlier, it is important to check the rhinoplasty

surgeon’s quality of work. Don’t simply settle about what you can hear or read,

but look for actual results.
