Revision Rhinoplasty Pinellas Park, FL | Dr Michael D Mirmanesh MD

Understanding Revision Rhinoplasty

Revision rhinoplasty is a specialized surgical procedure addressing complications or unsatisfactory results from previous nose surgeries. This complex procedure requires advanced surgical expertise due to existing scar tissue and structural changes from prior interventions.

Key Characteristics of Revision Rhinoplasty

• More intricate than primary rhinoplasty
• Longer surgical duration
• Higher complexity and cost
• Requires advanced surgical techniques

Surgical Approach and Techniques

Dr. Mirmanesh typically employs the open revision rhinoplasty technique, utilizing a small incision across the tissue between the nostrils. This approach allows comprehensive visualization and precise correction of previous surgical modifications.

Potential Surgical Corrections

• Reducing or increasing nose size
• Reshaping nasal tip
• Correcting asymmetry
• Narrowing nostril width
• Removing residual bumps
• Adjusting nose-lip angle

Surgical Considerations

Cartilage availability is crucial in revision rhinoplasty. When septal cartilage is insufficient, Dr. Mirmanesh may utilize alternative grafting sources like ear or rib cartilage to reconstruct nasal structure.

Procedure Overview

• Average surgical time: 4 hours
• Anesthesia: General
• Estimated cost: $20,000 USD

Recovery and Outcomes

Patients can typically return to work within two weeks and resume exercise after four weeks. Dr. Mirmanesh employs advanced techniques to maximize surgical outcomes and patient satisfaction.
