Revision rhinoplasty is a specialized surgical procedure performed on patients who have previously undergone rhinoplasty but are dissatisfied with the aesthetic or functional outcomes. This surgery aims to correct deformities caused by the initial operation, as well as issues like nasal asymmetry, breathing difficulties, or collapse of nasal structures.

 

In Antalya, Dr. Yasin Aslan is an experienced ENT specialist who performs both primary and revision rhinoplasty. With a meticulous and artistic approach, he creates natural, balanced, and functional noses tailored to each patient. Since revision rhinoplasty is often more complex than primary surgery, it must be carefully planned and executed by a surgeon with expertise in this field.

Revision rhinoplasty is often preferred in the following situations:

•Dissatisfaction with the nasal shape after the first surgery

•Collapse or loss of tip support

•Nasal bridge depression or a scooped appearance

•Persisting asymmetry after the first surgery

•Deep alar retraction and asymmetry

•Thick skin or poor skin quality

•Breathing difficulties or nasal obstruction

•Irregularities in the nostrils or nasal bridge

 

These issues can not only affect appearance but also significantly impact quality of life. Revision rhinoplasty aims to resolve these problems through a customized surgical plan.

Revision rhinoplasty requires a comprehensive evaluation of the nose structure, skin thickness, and any remaining scar tissue. Multiple factors are considered to create a personalized approach. In most cases:

•Open technique (with an incision under the columella) is preferred

•Rib cartilage grafting may be necessary, especially in complex cases

•Surgery takes around 2 to 4 hours

•General anesthesia and sedation are commonly used

 

Patients typically stay in the hospital for one night, and return to normal activities within 7–10 days. Full healing and final results may take 6–12 months.

 

⸻

 

•Thorough analysis of the previous surgery and nasal anatomy

•Planning based on patient-specific needs

•Being performed by a highly experienced surgeon

•Clear and realistic communication between doctor and patient

 

Revision rhinoplasty is a process that requires patience and precision. Dr. Yasin Aslan carefully evaluates each patient and offers a tailored surgical plan to ensure optimal results.
