Transforming Nasal Aesthetics and Function
Revision Rhinoplasty is more than a cosmetic procedure; it’s a journey towards restoring both the beauty and functionality of your nose. At the Nose and Sinus Institute of Boca Raton, our double board-certified surgeons, Dr. Hancock and Dr. Nachlas, specialize in correcting previous surgeries to achieve your desired aesthetic and functional outcomes.
What Is Revision Rhinoplasty?
A Revision Rhinoplasty is performed after a primary nose job fails to deliver the desired results.
Revision Rhinoplasty may be performed for multiple reasons. Some patients are dissatisfied with the aesthetic results from one or more previous Rhinoplasty surgeries. Others were initially satisfied, but over time, the results have changed, or the aging process has caused additional aesthetic concerns. In other situations, patients may experience significant breathing and functional issues related to over-resection of the skeletal framework of the nose during their initial surgery. Still, others have a combination of functional and aesthetic issues. The Total Nose Approach™ addresses the internal and external issues unique to these complicated situations.

Recovery from Revision Rhinoplasty may be more extensive than the initial surgery, often due to the presence of scar tissue.

Our Boca Raton team provides comprehensive post-operative care and guidance to ensure a smooth recovery.

Frequently Asked Questions
The cost of a Revision Rhinoplasty varies depending on the complexity of the procedure, the surgeon’s expertise, and the geographic location of the clinic. At the Nose and Sinus Institute of Boca Raton, we provide personalized consultations to discuss your specific needs and provide a detailed cost breakdown. Generally, Revision Rhinoplasty can be more expensive than a primary Rhinoplasty due to its complex nature.
Yes, the healing process can be longer compared to a primary Rhinoplasty. This is often due to the presence of scar tissue and the complexity of correcting previous alterations. Patients should expect a comprehensive recovery plan and may need to allow for additional time for swelling and bruising to subside fully.
It is generally recommended to wait at least one year after your initial Rhinoplasty before undergoing a revision. This waiting period allows your nose to fully heal and the final results of the first surgery to stabilize. However, in some cases, earlier intervention might be necessary. We advise scheduling a consultation with our Boca Raton specialists to assess your specific situation.
