Revision Rhinoplasty

There are several reasons a person might consider rhinoplasty. Perhaps your nose is misshapen, or not the right size for your face

2012-03-29

HOUSTON, TX, March 29, 2012 (Press-News.org) There are several reasons a person might consider rhinoplasty. Perhaps your nose is misshapen, or not the right size for your face. Perhaps your nose distracts from your natural beauty, or makes your face look asymmetrical or unappealing. In any case, the decision to have rhinoplasty is a big one. Unfortunately, many people experience uneven, displeasing results after rhinoplasty.

Revision Rhinoplasty

When your nose job fails to provide you with an appealing end result, you may want to consider revision rhinoplasty. With revision rhinoplasty, your plastic surgeon can correct mistakes, and provide you with the look you deserve.

It is important to be careful in your selection of a revision rhinoplasty surgeon. This is a complex procedure that will require both an understanding of the natural structure of your nose, as well as an understanding of where your previous surgeon went wrong. Your plastic surgeon will need to have exceptional skills in dealing with scar tissue, and a deep understanding of how to fix both your initial concerns, and your concerns brought about by a botched previous surgery. Your revision rhinoplasty procedure may include a transfer of cartilage from another area of your body to provide additional structure as well. This process demands a plastic surgeon experienced and trained to deal with these types of issues.

Selecting a Rhinoplasty Revision Surgeon

To start your search, you will want to find a plastic surgeon focused on facial plastic surgery. More than a focus, you should select a plastic surgeon board-certified by the American Board of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery. This certification is not easy to obtain, and indicates a level of experience and service that exceeds general medical training.

You should take time to look at your potential plastic surgeon's before and after gallery as well. Board-certification and experience are important, but "a picture is worth a thousand words." Being careful in your selection of your revision rhinoplasty surgeon can be a key component of avoiding additional complications.

Being unhappy with your nose is common. Being unhappy with your nose after rhinoplasty is tragic. You have a right to look and feel your absolute best. By working with a board-certified facial plastic surgeon, your rhinoplasty can be corrected, and beauty and symmetry can be restored to your face.

Researchers identify new regulator in allergic diseases
