I had a very bad nose job last year and have hated my nose

July 8, 2010 by Dr. Schoenfeld

Question:
I had a very bad nose job last year and have hated my nose ever since.  It looks pinched in at the tip. I am worried that surgery in the same area could cause permanent damage to my nose (Im thinking Michael Jackson here).  How long should I wait before I can have you fix my nose?

Answer:
I am sorry to hear about your nose job outcome.  I perform a great deal of revision rhinoplasty.  An overdone nose is the primary reason why people seek revision surgery.  I can also understand that once burned, twice shy.  However, the description that you have provided with regards to your nose sounds like you will need cartilage grafts added to your nose rather than removing more tissue, which is the case in Michael Jackson’s nose.  Your question with regards to permanent damage is a good one in that the more surgery you have the more scar tissue you will accumulate.  However, I feel confident that we can remedy a great deal of the issues that you have with your nose without causing any permanent damage to the appearance or function of your nose.  If it has been a year since your prior rhinoplasty then you can safely proceed with revision rhinoplasty surgery as there will likely be no further favorable changes to your nose from your first surgery.

  • I met SEVERAL renowned plastic surgeons across multiples states before choosing the right one to perform my surgeries. After the first few minutes with Dr. Schoenfeld, it became very apparent to me that he was the person I'd entrust with my operations. He is the consummate approach, level of expertise, and experience provided me a tremendous amount of comfort, I knew that my expectations would surely be met. As it turns out, I not only made the right choice, but Dr. Schoenfeld was able to surpass my expectations, everything turned as he said it would and even better than I had hoped, Dr.…

  • I went to Dr. Schoendfeld to have a Septoplasty/Rhinoplasty and I couldn't be happier. He called to check up on me multiple times after my surgery to make sure I was doing good and I love the appearance of my new nose. He was able to make it fit my face and make it look as natural as possible while still fixing everything I wanted to be corrected, I am also able to sleep so much better at night since I can breathe out of my nose with ease.

  • Dr Schoenfeld is a fantastic doctor. He is respectful and makes an effort to get to know his patients. He is experienced and quite good at what he does. I had seen him for several years for Botox and fillers and was always happy with the results—very natural and never overdone. I had some jowls and neck rings developing, and these were beyond anything that injectables or good skin care could fix. I knew I could trust Dr. Schoenfeld to fix these problems and to deliver an aesthetically pleasing and natural looking result.

    I am a busy person with a career and many other obligations,…
