What is Revision Rhinoplasty?

Revision rhinoplasty corrects problems from a previous nose surgery. Whether addressing breathing issues, asymmetry, collapsed structures, or unsatisfactory appearance, this complex procedure requires surgeons with extensive experience in secondary nasal surgery and reconstructive techniques.

What to Know Before You Go

💡

Pro Tip:

Wait 12–18 months after your primary rhinoplasty before seeking revision. This allows all swelling to resolve and tissues to stabilize, giving you — and your surgeon — an accurate picture of what needs correction.

⚠️

Insider Note:

Revision rhinoplasty is significantly more challenging than primary surgery. Choose a surgeon who specializes in revision cases and review their specific revision results carefully — not just their primary rhinoplasty outcomes.

"If I had to give advice regarding rhinoplasty, I’d say: 1–Wait until you’re 16, like the responsible, wise surgeons suggest, and 2– Go to Dr. Mohammet Dilber in Istanbul, as he is the closest thing to a “sure thing” as it gets for excellent rhinoplasty results. Dr. Dilber is an highly-skilled ENT who has a gift for rhinoplasty, as well as a rare care and concern for his patients. We are very relieved and grateful he was able to fix our daughter‘s open-nose deformity, with which her first revision surgeon left her. This has been a long road for us, and we were only open to the long travel distance out of desperation. Both my physician husband and I were very apprehensive about this decision, as we are naturally skeptical, but everything went very smoothly. His staff, the hospital staff, the hotel staff, as well as the citizens of Istanbul with whom we encountered were all incredibly kind, helpful, and honest. Dr. Dilber is an highly-skilled ENT who has a gift for rhinoplasty surgery, as well as a rare care and concern for his patients. He spent considerable time with us and seemed inexhaustible, meeting with us twice before the surgery, and twice after the surgery in a matter of a week. I highly recommend Dr. Dilber and am overjoyed that my daughter finally loves her nose."
