What to Expect from a Revision Rhinoplasty Consultation

When you’re considering a procedure as delicate and personal as revision rhinoplasty, it’s essential to choose a specialist with extensive experience and a track record of success. At Ghavami Plastic Surgery patients are offered expert guidance and a patient-centered approach to help you achieve the refined and functional results you’re looking for. If you’re exploring revision rhinoplasty in Beverly Hills, this overview will walk you through what to expect during your consultation.

A Conversation About Your Surgical History and Goals

Your consultation begins with an in-depth discussion about your previous rhinoplasty. You’ll be asked to explain what concerns remain—whether they’re aesthetic, functional, or both. Dr. Ghavami and Dr. Vranis carefully listen to your previous experiences and current expectations. This step is vital for setting realistic goals and ensuring that your motivations and goals are well understood.

Detailed Assessment of Your Nose and Facial Structure

Next, a physical examination is critical for the surgeons to assess the internal and external structure of your nose.  This includes breathing function, skin thickness, cartilage strength, and nasal symmetry. Most importantly, they will discuss with you the diagnosed structural issues (ie. what areas have weakened or missing cartilage).  This comprehensive evaluation helps develop a personalized surgical plan tailored specifically to your anatomy and goals.

Discussion of Surgical Options and Expected Results

Once the assessment is complete, you’ll receive a clear explanation of your surgical options. Dr. Ghavami and Dr. Vranis will outline the techniques likely needed to address your concerns, which may involve grafting, scar tissue removal, cartilage reshaping, or revision of the nasal tip. You’ll learn what kind of improvements are realistically achievable based on your unique nasal structure and healing history. The goal is to ensure that you fully understand the process and feel confident in your decision.

Planning Your Surgery and Recovery

When you choose to move forward, the pre-operative visit is required to review the pre-operative instructions, timeline expectations, and the healing process in more detail. Revision rhinoplasty is more complex than a primary procedure, and thus, it often requires a longer recovery time. However, our team is here for you and will gladly provide guidance on how to prepare and what to expect post-operatively, including swelling duration and activity restrictions.
