REVISION RHINOPLASTY
A poorly done rhinoplasty can result in deformities or impaired function of the nose. A revision rhinoplasty is a surgical procedure designed to repair both the form and function of a nose that has previously been operated on.
What is Revision Rhinoplasty?
A revision rhinoplasty is a procedure that corrects any issues caused by a rhinoplasty. A revision rhinoplasty is a surgical procedure designed to repair both the form and function of a nose that has previously been operated on.
BENEFITS
The greatest benefit of revision rhinoplasty is the ability to correct the damage done from a previous surgery. Some of these specific benefits include:
Reshaping the nose
Correcting nostrils
Improving breathing
Restoring the nasal bone area
WHAT TO EXPECT AFTER
The recovery process from revision rhinoplasty takes several weeks to complete depending on the extent of the procedure. During the first week, the nose is packed and splinted to allow the initial healing to take place. It is important to avoid sneezing, if possible, and any other direct impact on the nose. Ice packs can be used to relieve discomfort.
Once the packing and stitches are removed, patients may return to light activities and work; however, strenuous activities including exercise and heavy lifting should be avoided for several weeks. The full recovery from revision rhinoplasty takes several weeks.
