Can a rasping help address the issue of the bump on side of my nose 5 months post rhinoplasty?
Revision Rhinoplasty Nasal Bump
Nov 13, 2019
A small bump on the nose after rhinoplasty, especially revision rhinoplasty, can be due to many possible causes. It can take up to one year for the nose to heal after the surgery. It is common to have fluctuating swelling of the nose due to the disruption of the lymphatic (fluid drainage) system of the nasal skin which happens when the skin is elevated to perform the work on the nasal infrastructure during rhinoplasty. Scar formation can also cause bumps in the nose and can sometimes be t…
Nose tip and nostrils refinement – Can these be fixed with closed rhinoplasty? What method? (p
Can Closed Rhinoplasty Fix This?
Nov 13, 2019
Closed and open approaches for rhinoplasty are both very effective in the right situations. The main question is what parts of the nose bother you the most. In your case, you mentioned the nostril shape. Both approaches can be used to change the shape of the nostril and may achieve the results you would like. The closed rhinoplasty approach can make it difficult to make certain changes to the nostrils and nasal tip. The incision made to perform an open rhinoplasty can often be nearly…
How would you fix my drooping nose tip after primary rhinoplasty?
Correcting a Droopy Nasal Tip
Jan 7, 2019
When assessing your nasal tip, it is important to understand the effects of your facial expression and nasal tip position. Some patient have a “smiling deformity” in which the nasal tips droops due to action of the depressor septi nasii muscle. It is possible to have this muscle weakened or resected during rhinoplasty or during a minor nasal procedure. It is also important to recognize that with smiling, some patients have movement of the nasal alae (the “wings” of cartilage on either …
What is the least invasive way to correct my profile?
Changing the facial profile
Feb 2, 2018
Thank you for sharing your photos. The photographs suggest a relative deficiency of your maxilla (middle third of the face) compared to your jaw (lower third of the face). Filler and Sculptra injections are the least invasive means of adding volume to middle third of the face. Para-nasal implants and a rhinoplasty can add volume and projection to the midface as well. The most invasive but also most effective option is maxillomandibular advancement, in which measurements from your x-rays are…
1 blocked nostril, 5 months after rhinoplasty
Nasal obstruction following Rhinoplasty
Feb 2, 2018
With rhinoplasty, it is important to preserve or improve breathing. You need a comprehensive evaluation of not only the external nose but the internal nasal septum, the turbinates, and the external and internal nasal valves as well to determine if they need to be corrected with revision surgery to alleviate your current nasal obstruction after rhinoplasty. It is difficult to comment on your source of nasal obstruction from the provided photograph alone. An in-person examination would provide…
Is rhinoplasty a good option for someone who doesn’t want super drastic changes?
Nasal tip deprojection
Feb 2, 2018
Thank you for your question. Rhinoplasty can be an excellent option for making subtle changes in the appearance of your nose. It is essential to consult with a facial plastic surgeon well-known for rhinoplasty and has the capability of generating computer simulated images to ensure that your aesthetic goals are aligned. There are many ways to deproject a nose (make it stick out less). You might wish to read the paper I wrote on deprojection (“Nasal Tip Overprojection: Algorithm of Surgical…
Can my broken nose be fixed?
Rhinoplasty after nasal trauma
Dec 29, 2017
Thank you for your question, Edward. Yes, the deformities that you sustained with nasal trauma may be improved with a rhinoplasty. Often times, injury that alters the outward appearance of the nose involves structural changes to more than just the nasal bones themselves. Some of your photographs suggest that your upper lateral cartilages may have been dissociated from the nasal bones, forming an “inverted-v” deformity that may require spreader grafts. It is important to consult with a faci…
Can a nasal hump be recreated?
Recreating a dorsal hump in revision rhinoplasty
Dec 29, 2017
A nasal hump can be recreated using filler injection, synthetic implant, or cartilage graft. Mypersonal preference is for cartilage, which can be precisely carved to the desired configuration,is more permanent than fillers, and is less prone to infection than synthetic implants. It is important to consult with a facial plastic surgeon experienced in revision rhinoplasty. I suggest finding a surgeon who can perform computer imaging to obtain an agreed-upon goal for surgery so that your surg…
