What Is Revision Rhinoplasty?

Revision rhinoplasty helps unhappy patients achieve the nose they envisioned when they first decided to get cosmetic surgery. However, revision rhinoplasty is more than a secondary surgery; it is an advanced, intricate procedure that focuses on correcting issues or dissatisfaction from the original rhinoplasty. Think of it as a second chance – an opportunity to fine-tune the changes or address any concerns that might have emerged after your first nose surgery.

Dr. Stepanyan emphasizes that the purpose of revision rhinoplasty goes beyond fixing mistakes. It’s about restoring confidence, ensuring you can breathe easily, and ensuring your nose remains a centerpiece of balanced facial aesthetics.

Do You Need a Beverly Hills Revision Rhinoplasty?

Patients seek revision rhinoplasty for many reasons. Aesthetically, the initial surgery might not achieve the desired nose shape or harmonization with facial features. Functionally, post-surgical complications like breathing difficulties can arise. Additionally, healing can sometimes lead to unforeseen results such as asymmetry or irregularities.

Emotional dissatisfaction, where the outcome doesn’t align with your envisioned result, also plays a part. Revision rhinoplasty is essential for rectifying these concerns, ensuring you attain your ideal appearance.

How Is Revision Rhinoplasty Different From Rhinoplasty?

Revision rhinoplasty requires an especially skilled and seasoned surgeon. That’s because operating on already altered tissues, handling scars, and managing possible compromised blood supply to the region makes revision rhinoplasty far more challenging than the original surgery.

There are pronounced distinctions between primary and revision rhinoplasty, and understanding these differences is crucial.

Revision rhinoplasty requires Dr. Stepanyan to deal with a previously surgically altered landscape. The tissues have changed, scars may be present, and some vital anatomical landmarks may no longer be present.

In a primary rhinoplasty, surgeons have the flexibility of choosing their surgical approach based on the patient’s needs. With revision, the alterations might cause some limitations. For instance, if your surgeon used an open approach during the first procedure, Dr. Stepanyan might need to use the same technique during the revision to ensure better visibility and predictability.

Healing after revision rhinoplasty can be different from the primary procedure. Given the compounded impact of two surgeries, there may be increased swelling or prolonged recovery times. Dr. Stepanyan advises patients to anticipate this difference and prepare for a slightly extended healing period.

Revision rhinoplasty can be highly emotional, including dissatisfaction from the previous outcome or anxiety about the upcoming procedure. It’s essential for Dr. Stepanyan to tune into these feelings, offering support, compassion, and managing expectations judiciously.

Due to its intricate nature, revision rhinoplasty can sometimes be more expensive than the primary procedure. It demands a highly skilled surgeon’s expertise may involve more extensive consultations and pre-operative planning.
