Revision rhinoplasty is a surgery performed to correct an undesirable result following an original rhinoplasty procedure. This procedure is often more complex and time intensive than the original rhinoplasty. Patient specific assessment will determine if additional support needs to be added to the nasal skeleton, or if refining the existing cartilage will produce the desired results. A functional airway assessment will ensure that nasal air flow is not compromised, while concurrently creating a desired nasal shape. Recovery time is 1-2 weeks, although final results may take 12-18 months.

Revision Rhinoplasty Surgeon in Vancouver
The Surgical Experience
Rhinoplasty is performed under general anesthesia in an accredited surgical facility and typically takes around 2-3 hours to complete. It is considered an outpatient procedure. After surgery, patients will wear a nose splint and will experience bruising and swelling around the nose and eyes. Packing of the nose may be required. Once the bandages and splint are removed, the nose will look normal, but swollen, and it may take longer for the bruising to subside completely. It can take up to a full year for the nose to gain its final contour and softness.
Cost
Revision Rhinoplasty is a tailored surgery, thus the cost will vary depending on the aesthetic goals of the patient, as well as any functional corrections that need to be made. Some procedures will involve just the bone while others will involve cartilage reconstruction. On average, patients can expect to pay between $10,000-$16,000.
