What is Revision Rhinoplasty?
Revision rhinoplasty is a version of rhinoplasty that is ideal for patients who have already chosen rhinoplasty with another plastic surgeon but are not satisfied with their results. Rhinoplasty patients often wish for further changes to their size, shape, and projection, such as modifying a bulbous tip more. Some feel they have difficulty breathing after a previous rhinoplasty procedure has been performed.
Dr. Albert, an experienced revision rhinoplasty surgeon, frequently performs corrective rhinoplasty to improve upon previously performed operations and can help you achieve the desired outcome. If you’d like to learn more about how revision rhinoplasty in NYC can help you, our team is here to help.

How Often Do People Need a Revision Rhinoplasty?
Per studies, it's estimated that between 5% to 15% of rhinoplasty procedures may require revision. While rhinoplasty is generally considered a safe and effective procedure for enhancing the appearance and function of the nose, there are instances where patients may not achieve their desired results or experience complications that necessitate revision surgery.
Does Revision Rhinoplasty Have to be Open? Answered by Dr. Albert
"A common misconception is that complex revision rhinoplasty can only be performed open. This is not the case. I perform 100% of rhinoplasty closed whether a patient has had 1 rhinoplasty before or 5. There are no maneuvers or techniques that can be done open that can't be done closed, and performing these procedures closed allows for less bruising, swelling, and overall downtime while minimizing some risks that come with open rhinoplasty."
