NEVER AGAIN

This overview preserves the source treatment page and organizes its plan, risk and recovery information. A doctor must still assess whether treatment is appropriate for you.

Revision rhinoplasty is best considered at least six months to one year after the previous operation, once the nose has stabilized. An initially unsatisfactory shape may improve as swelling subsides and the tissues settle. For a more precise revision, the nasal line is designed three times: during consultation, while seated in the operating room, and again while lying on the operating table. Surgery by an experienced specialist A specialist with more than ten years of rhinoplasty experience performs the operation, supported one-to-one by an anesthesiology and pain medicine specialist. REAL patients commonly report natural-looking results and swelling and bruising that settle sooner than expected. The nose must first be assessed for inflammation, skin contracture, and whether an implant should be removed. A reliable evaluation is generally possible at least six months after the previous surgery.

Outstanding expertise and experience

Treatment method image
  1. Untangling the underlying problem

    The priority in revision surgery is to resolve problems from the previous operation. Proceeding without identifying and correcting them is like leaving a tangled knot unresolved and may create larger problems.

  2. Turning limitations into strengths

    To create a harmonious nose, we aim to transform the limitations of the previous surgery into natural strengths wherever possible.

  3. Revision rhinoplasty specialists with extensive clinical experience

    Revision surgery requires a highly skilled surgeon with problem-solving ability and extensive clinical experience. REAL's rhinoplasty specialists bring more than ten years of experience to complex cases.

  4. REAL Plastic Surgery and its Rhinoplasty Center aim to correct problems and shape the nose in a single operation through research-based, systematic, personalized planning.

Recovery information

Is recovery longer than after the first surgery?

Revision recovery is generally somewhat longer than after the first operation and depends on the internal condition of the nose. Recovery time varies by individual.

诊疗注意事项 6 precautions
  1. If you are being treated or taking medication for high blood pressure, heart disease, diabetes, or a thyroid condition, inform your coordinator in advance.
  2. Stop smoking before surgery because cigarettes can trigger phlegm, sneezing, and postoperative bleeding.
  3. Observe the required fasting period before surgery.
  4. Contact lenses, jewelry, nail products, and similar items may interfere with surgery, so remove them beforehand.
  5. Wear comfortable clothing that will not irritate the surgical area when you come to the hospital.
  6. You may be unable to drive after surgery.

Common questions

Questions and answers

Review common concerns before your consultation

When is the best time for revision rhinoplasty?

Wait at least six months after the previous surgery. Swelling and tissue recovery take time, so choose the timing after an in-person assessment by a specialist.

Must the implant be replaced?

Implant replacement depends on the current condition and the desired nasal shape.

Can implant visibility through the skin be fully corrected?

Visibility may result from implant height or size and the condition of the skin. Implant-related issues may be improved, but very thin skin can reveal even a thin implant; in such cases a dermal graft may be needed.
