Revision Rhinoplasty Houston, TX | Dr. Sean W. Delaney

Understanding Revision Rhinoplasty

Revision Rhinoplasty is a specialized surgical procedure designed to correct and improve the results of a previous rhinoplasty. When initial nose surgery does not achieve the desired aesthetic or functional outcomes, this advanced technique offers patients a second opportunity to address structural and cosmetic concerns.

What Makes Revision Rhinoplasty Unique?

Revision Rhinoplasty is considered the most challenging procedure in facial plastic surgery. Unlike primary rhinoplasty, this procedure involves working with altered nasal anatomy, requiring exceptional surgical skill and precision.

• Addresses both aesthetic and functional nasal issues
• Requires extensive understanding of complex nasal structure
• Tailored approach for each patient's unique anatomical challenges

Expert Surgical Approach

Dr. Sean Delaney and Dr. Russell Kridel are globally recognized experts in revision rhinoplasty. With over 60% of their rhinoplasty procedures being revisions, they bring unparalleled expertise to complex nasal reconstruction.

Comprehensive Consultation Process

The initial consultation involves a thorough examination of nasal structure, including evaluation of the septum, nasal valves, and internal nasal structures. Patients can expect a comprehensive two-hour consultation focused on understanding their specific concerns and goals.

Candidate Considerations

Ideal candidates for Revision Rhinoplasty must have realistic expectations and be at least one year post-operation from their previous surgery. Patients with compromised nasal anatomy and a desire for functional and aesthetic improvement are most suitable.

Key Candidacy Factors

• Minimum one-year healing period after previous surgery
• Realistic expectations for improvement
• Good overall health
• Non-smokers and non-drug users

Recovery and Expectations

Recovery from Revision Rhinoplasty typically involves initial swelling and bruising, with most patients returning to normal activities within one to two weeks. Full aesthetic results can take up to two years to completely settle.
