Getting Revision Rhinoplasty in Dayton

Getting revision rhinoplasty in Dayton occurs when surgery is required on a nose to repair poorly executed surgery or to correct some irregularity from a previous surgery. Revision rhinoplasty is also performed to remove scars from a previous surgery. Important factors guiding revision rhinoplasty are: 1.) how the nose looks now; 2.) what is the problem/irregularity that needs to be addressed/repaired; 3.) how much scarring remains from previous surgeries; 4.) the mental state of the patient; 5.) can the nose be corrected.

These five factors must be considered by surgeons before a revision rhinoplasty can take place. Surgeons who specialize in revision rhinoplasty are trained to fix other surgeons mistakes. While it is rare for a nose to be completely beyond repair, it is important to analyze the patient's motivation behind requesting multiple surgeries.

How Often is Revision Rhinoplasty Performed

According to statistical analysis, revision rhinoplasty procedures need are performed to correct the original procedure approximately 17% of the time in the United States. It is also important to note, however, that a large percentage of these cases are to correct a very minor irregularity in the first procedure. Some of the remaining "clean up" cases are also a result of the patient accidentally causing damage to the nose after surgery. Accidental damage, for example, could occur from an unexpected car accident or fall that causes the nose to be damaged.
