Rhinoplasty is one of the plastic surgeons' most difficult and artful procedures. Undergoing primary rhinoplasty can require a leap of faith—and when the results are poor, patients can be left shocked and unhappy with their decision. In fact, a subpar rhinoplasty can leave patients more self-conscious than before the procedure. Finding a proficient surgeon in the complex art of revision rhinoplasty is important in such a case. Our board-certified plastic surgeons have been performing revision rhinoplasty in San Diego for over two decades, routinely helping their patients get the result they sought the first time.

It's generally recommended that you wait at least 12 months after your primary rhinoplasty before undergoing revision. This allows for full healing as swelling and tissue changes continue for up to a year, making it easier to assess the final result.
Due to its complexity, revision rhinoplasty often requires a longer surgical time. The need to correct previous alterations, rebuild structure, or use grafts adds intricacies that make revision procedures generally more time-intensive than primary rhinoplasties.
Revision rhinoplasty carries some specific risks, such as increased scar tissue, compromised blood supply, and the potential for more challenging healing due to previous surgical alterations. Choosing an experienced surgeon such as Dr. Chasan can help mitigate these risks.
Yes, revision rhinoplasty can address functional issues, including breathing difficulties, that may have resulted from the initial surgery. To improve airflow, structural adjustments or additional support for the nasal passageways are often part of revision procedures.
Swelling after revision rhinoplasty can be more pronounced and last longer than after the initial surgery, especially if grafting or extensive reconstruction is involved. Most swelling subsides within a few months, but minor residual swelling can persist for up to a year.
Yes, many patients seek revision rhinoplasty to address an overly refined or unnatural look. Skilled surgeons like Dr. Chasan can reshape the nose, soften its appearance, and restore a more natural look that complements the patient's facial features.
Revision rhinoplasty results are generally long-lasting, but natural aging processes will still impact your nose’s appearance over time. Barring major trauma or significant weight fluctuations, revision rhinoplasty can provide results that last a lifetime.
