Question:
What is the healing like after revision rhinoplasty compared to primary rhinoplasty?
Answer:
With an extensive revision in which there was thick scar tissue and a number of grafts were place, it may take longer than the original rhinoplasty. You may also need some steroid injections. If the revision is minimal (eg just some trimming of cartilage or a small graft), the healing can be much shorter than with the primary rhinoplasty.
