Question:
I am extremely unhappy with my rhinoplasty results. My nose is too thin and points upwards like a ski slope. I have gone to see 2 plastic surgeons since the surgery and they will not perform revision rhinoplasty on me until it is at least 6-12 months from my first surgery. Why do I need to wait so long?
Answer:
It is important to wait at least 12 months before revision in order to allow complete healing to occur. The reason for this is to prevent over or under correction of the problem areas if the intervention is done during a period when the nose is still changing.
