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.

Dr. Schoenfeld fixed my broken nose last St. Patty's Day and I couldn't be happier with the results. I fell on my nose multiple times as a kid and officially broke it 3 years ago, so let's just say my nose was pretty messed up and useless. I finally decided it was time to get it fixed at the beginning of 2017. Dr. Schoenfeld has a great bedside manner, is honest about expectations, and exudes a confidence that immediately made me trust him as a surgeon. The surgical team at River Road Surgery Center was also excellent. They answered all of my questions, made me feel at ease, and pumped me…

5 stars

Thanks again for the most excellent work you did on my nose -- I am just thrilled (yet still recovering.) It has made a world of difference to my breathing and I couldn't be happier with the work you did! I've almost got my smile back. Best wishes -- and thanks so much again to you (and Dawn, too). Sincerely,

5 stars

Thank you so much for not only beautifully repairing my nose, but for rearranging your schedule and going out of your way to help me in my time of need. Your friendly and distinctive assistance is appreciated more than you know. Thank you,
