What Is Rhinoplasty:

Who Needs It:

  • Individuals dissatisfied with the results of a prior nose surgery

  • Patients experiencing nasal airway obstruction after previous surgery

  • Those with visible nasal irregularities or asymmetry

  • Patients with breathing difficulties caused by structural collapse or deviation

  • Individuals seeking correction of both form and function of the nose

The Benefits:

  • Improves the appearance and symmetry of the nose

Procedure Details

For Secondary Rhinoplasty

What to Expect

  • Uses advanced surgical techniques based on an anatomical approach

  • Secondary Rhinoplasty is more complex than a primary nose surgery.

  • Each case requires individualized evaluation and detailed pre-operative planning.

  • Prior scar tissue can make nasal anatomy less predictable, requiring careful correction.

  • Designed to improve both nasal appearance and breathing function.

  • Internal nasal airway surgery may be performed to correct a deviated septum and improve airflow.

  • Perforated septum concerns are evaluated during consultation and surgical planning.

  • Uses the patient’s own tissue for more reliable, natural-looking results.

  • Synthetic implant materials are generally avoided to reduce the risk of complications or scarring.

  • Internal nasal packing and an external splint help protect and support the new nasal structure during healing.

  • The goal is a natural-looking nose that functions well and does not appear over-operated
