Revision Rhinoplasty refers to the re-nasal aesthetics of a person who has undergone rhinoplasty in order to eliminate functional or aesthetic defects resulting from surgery.
Instead, it can be called "Second Nose Aesthetics" or "Nose Reshaping".
This surgery is suitable for patients who are not satisfied with the first rhinoplasty or for patients who need to correct the defects that occur after rhinoplasty.
If only one area of the nose needs to be intervened in the second surgery, this surgery is called "Retouching Surgery". If more than one area is to be intervened and additional procedures are required, this surgery is called "Revision Rhinoplasty" or "Secondary Rhinoplasty".
Revision rhinoplasty is a rhinoplasty procedure performed for patients who are not satisfied with their first rhinoplasty or who do not get the desired results.
This procedure is done to correct the shape, function or aesthetics of the nose. In revision rhinoplasty, if there is no minimal or urgent need for intervention, at least 6 months, ideally 1 year, should be waited for revision surgeries.
Revision rhinoplasty is performed to correct the problems that occur after the previous rhinoplasty procedure, to improve the shape and function of the nose, or to provide an aesthetic appearance. This procedure should be performed by an experienced surgeon, because revision rhinoplasty is a more difficult and comprehensive procedure and requires an experienced surgeon.
Revision rhinoplasty can vary and may include: reshaping the nasal bone, resizing the nasal tip or nasal bone, correcting the internal structure of the nose, or widening the nostril.
Revision rhinoplasty may require one or more procedures as needed to ensure the best results for patients. However, it is crucial for patients to achieve the results they want and to be satisfied.
Revision rhinoplasty is suitable for patients who are not satisfied with their first rhinoplasty or who do not get a result that meets their expectations. The following situations may be a suitable option for revision rhinoplasty:
Undesirable nose shape: If an unwanted nose shape has occurred after the first rhinoplasty procedure, revision rhinoplasty can correct the nose shape.
Nasal dysfunction: If nasal function disorders have occurred after the first rhinoplasty procedure, revision rhinoplasty can restore nasal function.
Undesirable nose tip: If the tip of the nose has an undesirable shape after the first rhinoplasty procedure, revision rhinoplasty can correct the tip of the nose.
Nasal dysfunction as a result of trauma or accident: Revision rhinoplasty can provide correction of nasal function in trauma or accidents where nasal function disorders occur.
Patients who are not satisfied with their first rhinoplasty: Patients who are not satisfied with their first rhinoplasty can achieve the results they want with revision rhinoplasty.
Revision rhinoplasty may vary according to the patient's expectations and condition and may require one or more procedures according to his needs. It needs to be performed by experienced operator doctors and is intended to ensure the satisfaction of patients and the best results. Some issues to be considered after Revision Rhinoplasty are:
Healing Process: It is important to strictly follow all the instructions given by the physician, as the recovery period after the operation may be different in different people.
