Successful nose surgery depends on a colossal amount of surgical precision and skill, making it one of the most complex cosmetic procedures.
For this reason, the rate of revision is higher than other procedures. In order to revise or correct a previously done rhinoplasty, the revision surgeon must possess superlative talent and insight.
As a premier facial specialist, Dr. Torkian has performed countless revision rhinoplasties to a great result, testifying to his unrelenting skill and ability. If you received a nose job from a previous surgeon and are unhappy with the results, Dr. Torkian may be the perfect fit to give you the nose you wanted the first time around with revision rhinoplasty in Beverly Hills.
Revision rhinoplasty is often referred to as one of the most technically demanding cosmetic surgeries. After a previous nose job, the nasal anatomy has been altered, sometimes significantly. There may be scar tissue, cartilage loss, skin thinning, or structural changes that make surgical planning far more complex than in a primary rhinoplasty.
At our Beverly Hills revision rhinoplasty center, Dr. Torkian uses his extensive training and decades of experience to correct both functional and aesthetic issues that occurred during the first surgery. Whether you're facing breathing problems or simply unhappy with the appearance of your nose, revision nose surgery demands a high level of expertise and precision to get it right the second time.

How safe is revision rhinoplasty?
What should I expect for my revision rhinoplasty recovery?
If you are unhappy with how your nose has healed or aged after your last rhinoplasty procedure, you could benefit from revision rhinoplasty. In most cases, poor outcomes and errors from past nose job surgeries are fixable with revision surgery.
Revisional surgeries are more complex than standard rhinoplasty. Yet, nose job repair surgery is among the safest cosmetic procedures performed today. Additional risks are associated with revision rhinoplasty, such as excess scar tissue, healing impairments, damaged blood vessels, decreased sensitivity, and additional correction surgeries. Interested parties can learn about their unique risks and suitability by scheduling a rhinoplasty consultation.
Complete revision rhinoplasty recovery usually takes several months to one year. It’s common for some patients to have shorter or longer recovery times. During the first phase of recovery, there will be some mild bruising, swelling, discoloration, and soreness. Patients return to the clinic after a week to have their results assessed and bandages removed. At this point, most revision rhinoplasty patients feel well and recovered enough to return to work or school. Strenuous, high impact, and certain activities are to be avoided until medically cleared to resume, usually around the four-to-six-week mark after revision rhinoplasty. Clear guidelines for revision rhinoplasty recovery that minimize the likelihood of injuries, complications, and issues that could tarnish patient recovery and outcome are addressed during the consultation and before scheduling the procedure.
