Risks and Considerations
While rhinoplasty has a high satisfaction rate, it is statistically the most common procedure to require a "revision" (secondary surgery) due to the unpredictable nature of how skin shrinks over the new cartilage framework.
Common Risks: Temporary numbness, prolonged swelling, and dissatisfaction with the final aesthetic.
Serious Risks: Septal perforation (a hole in the inner wall), persistent breathing difficulty, or skin necrosis.
2026 Advances: Surgeons now use 3D Computer Imaging during consultations to create a "Digital Twin" of your face, allowing you to see a simulation of your potential result before the first incision is made.
