Revision Rhinoplasty Before & After #4

This patient underwent rhinoplasty elsewhere approximately 20 years ago and later suffered a nasal fracture, leaving her with a severely twisted nose when viewed from the front.

Correcting this wasn’t as simple as just straightening her nose! Dr. Smith performed a complex revision rhinoplasty using rib cartilage grafting to rebuild and support her nasal structure, along with sinus surgery to address her functional concerns.

Now, 1.5 years later, her nose is straighter, better supported, and she’s breathing better!

Revision rhinoplasty can be especially challenging when previous surgery, scar tissue, and trauma have altered the nasal anatomy. This is why restoring both appearance AND function is so important!
