Preservation Rhinoplasty
Revision rhinoplasty is a corrective surgical procedure performed subsequent to a primary rhinoplasty or a previous procedure performed elsewhere by a different surgeon. It may be undertaken multiple times to enhance both the appearance and function of the nose. Often considered one of the most intricate procedures at A1 Surgery Center, revision rhinoplasty addresses aesthetic irregularities and functional disturbances that may persist following prior surgeries.
Most forms of revision rhinoplasty necessitate reconstructive techniques to establish sufficient structural support for the nasal tip and dorsum (bridge). Typically, this involves utilizing cartilage, which may be harvested from alternative sites if the nasal septum lacks adequate cartilage for reconstruction. Common donor sites include the ear and occasionally the ribs. Patients experiencing issues with the nasal tip or bridge may require soft tissue harvested from other areas of the body. Fascia, a tough connective tissue layer found at the hairline, is sometimes utilized by rhinoplasty specialists. Scar tissue from previous surgeries can distort the internal nasal architecture, necessitating skin grafts or soft tissue flaps to correct airway abnormalities that may cause breathing difficulties.
