Revision Rhinoplasty Cases by Type 3 (Tip Deformity After Rhinoplasty)

Revision rhinoplasty refers to corrective surgery performed when, after one or more nasal surgeries,

aesthetic or functional side effects have developed.

The deformities that result from problems after rhinoplasty are so varied

that it is difficult to show every case one by one.

The reason is that the nose is a three-dimensional structure and a complex organ in which various tissues are organically connected.

We will therefore focus on representative cases and explain how, after revision surgery, side effects can be kept from recurring

and a good result can be achieved.

The septum is bent to the right, narrowing the nostril.

The bent, pinched ala has been rounded out, and the notching, in which the nostril rim was pulled upward,

has been smoothed into a gentle curve, so the nostrils no longer show.

The tilted columella has been straightened, and the asymmetric nostrils have become precisely symmetric.

The tip, which was bent to the left, now extends straight, and its shape has become natural.

The nose has been lengthened appropriately, and the pointed, angular tip and columella have become gently rounded.

The symmetry the patient wanted and the nostril show issue have both improved naturally.

On endoscopic view, the septum that had been protruding has been straightened.
