Rhinoplasty is a complicated and delicate surgery. Many times it may happen your first surgery was
not successful. So, you may want to go for a Revision Rhinoplasty. Some problems you may
encounter after you first surgery are:
The Cost of a Rhinoplasty
1. BRIDGE AND CENTRAL NOSE PROBLEMS
Polly Beak Deformity-Cartilaginous or Soft Tissue
It occurs:• When too much cartilage is left
after surgery.• When too much soft tissue is
removed on a patient’s thick skin• When surgeon fails to leave enough
support for the tip of the nose and it droops over time
The Cost of a Rhinoplasty
Profile Deformity: Persistent Bump or Scooped Out Bridge
It occurs:• When a rhinoplasty attempts to
address a bump (or bumps) in the nose.
• When the surgeon misjudges and takes out too much bone
Collapsed Central Nose: Middle Vault / Inverted "V" Deformity and Internal Valve Collapse
It occurs:• When a bump is removed from
the central nose, but inadequate support is provided.
The Cost of a Rhinoplasty
Irregular Bridge or a Poor Bridge to Tip Relationship
It occurs:• When there are irregularities in the
healing of bridge after the removal of a bump
The Cost of a Rhinoplasty
2. DEVIATED NOSE ISSUES
Deviated Nose or Persistent Deviation After Surgery
• nose with twist-either in the upper, middle, or tip of the nose.
• cause of a pre-existing deviation is crooked nasal bones.
• During the surgery, removing a bump or other issue cause bones to shift.
The Cost of a Rhinoplasty
3. TIP PROBLEMS
Pinnochio Deformity/Overprojected Tip
• when tip of the nose projects too far from the face.
• if the bridge of the nose slopes too much post-surgery.
Overly Shortened Nose/Over-Rotated Tip
It occurs:• When too much of the
supporting structure for an area of the nose is removed during a rhinoplasty.
The Cost of a Rhinoplasty
Droopy Tip/Under-Rotated or Poorly Supported Tip
It occurs:• When too much of the tip's support
structure cartilage is removed and the end of the nose collapses downward
The Cost of a Rhinoplasty
Asymmetric TipIt occurs:• due to unequal scarring during the
healing process and not reveal themselves until months or even years after the fact.
• When the two points of cartilage (like two wings) that form the nose tip are pulled so close together it appears as if the nose comes to a single point.
The Cost of a Rhinoplasty
Tip Bossae (Knuckling)It occurs:• When the cartilage turns upon
itself and the weakest points at the joints of the cartilage form very noticeable bumps or "knuckles."
Pinched TipIt occurs:• Where too much tip cartilage
was removed.
Unitip Deformity• When the two points of cartilage
(like two wings) that form the nose tip are pulled so close together it appears as if the nose comes to a single point.
Wide Tip, Bulbous Tip, and Deviated Tip
• When too much of the supporting cartilage for the tip is removed, the resulting tip can collapse and wind up looking too wide or too bulbous.
The Cost of a Rhinoplasty
4. NOSTRIL PROBLEMS
Collapsed Nostrils/External Valve Collapse
• internal nasal valve problems can occur during the removal of bumps on the bridge of the nose,
• external valve collapse happens when too much tip cartilage is removed during a rhinoplasty procedure.
The Cost of a Rhinoplasty
Hanging Columella, Retracted Nostril, or Alar Retraction
It occurs:• When too much of the nasal spine or
the bottom of the septum is removed• When too much cartilage is removed
and excessive upward scarring occurs inside the nostril sidewall after surgery
The Cost of a Rhinoplasty
5. GENERAL AESTHETIC PROBLEMS
Aesthetic Imbalance: High Radix• Radix height relates to the angle
formed between the frontal and nasal bones of the nose.
• If the radix is left too high or if too large a radix graft is put in place during surgery, the nose will have an inelegant, Romanesque quality afterward.
