Revision Rhinoplasty: Revision rhinoplasty: this is a rhinoplasty performed on a nose that has been previously operated on. This surgery has a number of challenges associated with it as a previously operated nose can have scar tissue, and tissue limitations. Surgeons performing this surgery must take into account that blood supply can be unpredictable and that previous surgeon's work may have to be undone.
