How the Procedure Is Performed

  1. Consultation and assessment

    In-depth consultation with analysis of previous results

  2. A more complex surgery

    Revision rhinoplasty is technically more complex than primary rhinoplasty due to scar tissue and pre-existing anatomical changes.

  3. Open approach

    The surgeon typically uses an open approach for better visualization.

  4. Cartilage grafts

    Structural cartilage grafts (from the septum, ear, or ribs) are often necessary to reconstruct the nose and correct deformities.

  5. Personalised surgical plan

    Each case is unique and requires a personalized surgical plan.

Postoperative Follow-up and Recovery

  1. Day 0

    1 to 2 nights of hospitalization

  2. A slower recovery

    Postoperative recovery is generally slower than after primary rhinoplasty due to secondary scarring

  3. Up to 18 months

    Swelling may persist longer (up to 18 months)

  4. First ten days

    A splint is worn for 10 days

  5. First weeks

    Bruising is expected for 2 to 3 weeks

  6. Regular follow-up

    Close follow-up is required for 18 months

Indicative timelines: every recovery is specific to the patient and follows the surgeon's instructions.

Expected Results

Final results require more time to stabilize (18 months on average). Correcting imperfections restores a natural and functional nose. In some cases, a second procedure may be necessary.
