Revision rhinoplasty in Turkey

With a high-quality doctor crew at Arpanu Aesthetics, revision rhinoplasty in Turkey will exceed your expectations.
Understanding Revision Rhinoplasty
Overview
Revision rhinoplasty is the correction of the first or previous rhinoplasty surgery results. The procedure is also called secondary rhinoplasty or revision nose job. The operation is usually more complicated than the first or previous procedures and the complication rate increases with every revision.
Revision surgery is usually performed under general anesthesia using an open rhinoplasty approach. During surgery, the surgeon may use ear and rib cartilage to support the nose structure if it’s weakened.
Once the surgery is complete you might encounter minor bleeding, and moderate pain depending on the scale of your operation. Recovery may take longer than primary rhinoplasty, elongating a few more days.
Nose revision surgery tips
Before deciding on revision rhinoplasty, consider these helpful tips to guide your decision.
- Make sure your nose has healed: After the first surgery, your nose needs some time until the skin re-attaches to the manipulated cartilage and bone structure. Besides, all the swelling should be gone before you judge your rhinoplasty results.
- You need realistic expectations: Once you decide to get revision surgery you should have an open mind about what you desire and put your functional needs ahead of your aesthetic desires to avoid complications and reduce risk factors.
- Expect a higher cost: Revision rhinoplasty demands extensive expertise in nasal surgery, which often results in higher costs. Additionally, the procedure may involve harvesting cartilage from other areas of the body, further contributing to the overall expense.
- Be prepared for a bit longer recovery: Recovery from a revision rhinoplasty may take longer than that of primary surgery, with side effects such as bleeding, bruising, and moderate pain potentially being more pronounced.
- Open or closed revision rhinoplasty: Due to the complexity of revision rhinoplasty, surgeons typically prefer the open approach. The closed technique is generally only suitable for minimal adjustments.

Revision rhinoplasty surgery procedure
A revision rhinoplasty procedure is tailored to address aesthetic or functional concerns, such as breathing difficulties, asymmetry, or nasal shape refinement. This requires a skilled surgeon to navigate the complexities of altered nasal anatomy and scar tissue from prior surgeries.
Choice of Anesthesia
The choice of anesthesia for revision rhinoplasty depends on the extent of the procedure. Options typically include general anesthesia, which ensures the patient is completely unconscious, or local anesthesia with sedation, where the patient remains relaxed but conscious.
The surgeon will discuss the safest and most comfortable anesthesia type for the patient’s needs.
Open or closed incisions
Revision rhinoplasty can be performed using either an open or closed approach.
- An open approach involves an incision across the columella, allowing full access to the nasal structure.
- A closed approach uses incisions within the nostrils, leaving no visible scars but limiting access.
The choice depends on the complexity of the revision and the specific adjustments needed.
Cartilage Harvesting
In some cases, cartilage grafts are needed to strengthen or reshape the nasal structure during revision rhinoplasty.
Cartilage may be harvested from the nasal septum, ear, or rib, depending on the amount and type of cartilage required. Harvesting is done carefully to ensure minimal impact on the donor site while providing adequate material for a stable, natural-looking result.

Frequently Asked Questions
Gain advanced knowledge over what happens after the surgery, and how long the recovery lasts for revision rhinoplasty operation.
Is it possible to reverse rhinoplasty?
Not really. It is possible to achieve a similar appearance to the nose you had before the rhinoplasty surgery, but this does not apply to all.
Does it take longer to recover after revision rhinoplasty?
Compared to primary rhinoplasty, the recovery phase may take a few days longer after a secondary or revision rhinoplasty surgery. This timeline also differs depending on how complicated your surgery was and biological differences.
Will I need further surgeries after revision rhinoplasty?
Some people might require further minor corrections after a secondary rhinoplasty. Thankfully, rhinoplasty surgeons always aim to complement all the needs of patients in secondary rhinoplasty surgeries, reducing the chances for follow-ups.
When will I see the final results after a revision rhinoplasty?
If it is your second rhinoplasty surgery, it might again take a year for the whole healing and settling down the process for your nose. However, keep in mind that, after having multiple nose surgeries the healing period extends, and in some cases the settling down may take a year and a half.
Do they use rib cartilage in a revision rhinoplasty?
Generally, no, but there can be exceptions at your own risk. During ethnic rhinoplasty, surgeons typically recommend the best approach, which most people accept to avoid unsatisfactory results.
However, it’s not always a strict no. If the surgeon is highly experienced and your nose structure is strong, a complete change in nose shape may be possible.
