Revision Rhinoplasty Los Angeles, CA | Kian Karimi MD, FACS

Understanding Revision Rhinoplasty

A revision rhinoplasty is a specialized surgical procedure designed to repair and correct aesthetic or functional issues resulting from a previous nose surgery. This complex procedure addresses deformities and impaired nasal function that may have occurred during an initial rhinoplasty.

What Defines a Revision Rhinoplasty?

Revision rhinoplasty is a surgical intervention specifically tailored to correct complications from a prior nasal surgery. The procedure focuses on restoring both the structural integrity and aesthetic appearance of the nose, ensuring optimal functional and cosmetic outcomes.

Key Benefits of Revision Rhinoplasty

• Reshaping the nasal structure
• Correcting asymmetrical nostrils
• Improving nasal breathing functionality
• Restoring nasal bone and cartilage alignment

Recovery Expectations

Revision rhinoplasty recovery requires careful management and patience. During the initial week, patients can expect nasal packing and splinting to support healing. Patients should avoid direct nose impacts and use ice packs to manage discomfort.

Full recovery typically spans several weeks. Patients can return to light activities after initial healing, but strenuous exercises and heavy lifting should be avoided during the recovery period.

Surgical Considerations

Each revision rhinoplasty is uniquely designed to address individual patient needs. Dr. Kian Karimi employs specialized techniques to ensure precision and optimal results, taking into account previous surgical interventions and current nasal anatomy.
