What is revision rhinoplasty and to whom is it indicated?

Revision rhinoplasty is a repeated nose operation performed after a previous unsuccessful or insufficiently successful rhinoplasty. It is performed if the initial result was unsatisfactory: there were irregularities, deformities, breathing difficulties, or there was a need to restore the lost functionality of the nose. Complaints about asymmetry, out of proportion, external defects, and difficulty breathing are often the cause. Revision plastic surgery is more difficult than primary surgery, and requires the experience and accuracy of a surgeon.

What factors influence the choice of a clinic for revision rhinoplasty in South Korea?

When choosing a clinic for revision rhinoplasty in South Korea, they pay attention to the reputation of the institution, the experience of the surgeon, the equipment, patient reviews and certificates of compliance with international standards. It is important to make sure that the doctor specializes in complex cases and is able to perform the operation individually, taking into account the individual anatomical features and wishes of the client. The convenience of accommodation, staff support, and travel arrangements also play a role in making the decision.

How is the recovery after revision rhinoplasty going and what are the general recommendations for a successful outcome of the operation?

Recovery after revision rhinoplasty lasts longer than the initial intervention and requires careful attention. The first days are marked by swelling, soreness and possible nasal congestion. The nasal bandage is removed after a week and a half, but the swelling and redness will persist for up to 3-4 weeks. It is recommended to be careful, avoid bumps and pressure on the nose, sleep with an elevated head position, and protect the nose from the sun and cold. It is better to postpone physical activity and sports activities for a period of four to eight weeks. Complications can usually be avoided by following the doctor's recommendations.

Revision Rhinoplasty in Seoul

7 700 $

Revision rhinoplasty in Seoul is performed when the patient is dissatisfied with the results of the previous plastic surgery. This is usually due to insufficient correction or mistakes made by the surgeon, which led to asymmetry and other deformities. Less commonly, revision rhinoplasty is needed after subsequent nose injuries or degenerative tissue changes. In this case, cartilage implantation or transplantation may be required. In any case, such a procedure requires great care and expertise from the surgeon, as they have to work with previously damaged structures and scar tissue. Seoul's plastic surgeons have solid experience and high qualifications that are recognised worldwide. They are able to achieve amazing results even with the most difficult initial conditions. At Reviva, we work with leading doctors and clinics in Seoul, so we are happy to help you choose the most experienced surgeon for revision rhinoplasty. We also provide foreign patients with a full range of travel arrangements and various types of assistance on site. With us, you can focus on your transformation without any everyday worries.
