Revision rhinoplasty is one of the most complex procedures in facial surgery. It is performed when a previous rhinoplasty has not delivered the desired functional or cosmetic outcome, or when problems develop over time such as breathing difficulty, collapse, asymmetry, or instability.
If you are searching for a revision rhinoplasty expert in the UK, it is essential to choose a surgeon with specific expertise in nasal reconstruction, not just routine cosmetic rhinoplasty.
Where to Find a Revision Rhinoplasty Expert in the UK?
Why Revision Rhinoplasty Requires a Expert Specialist
Unlike primary rhinoplasty, revision surgery involves:
Scar tissue and altered anatomy
Weakened or missing cartilage
Distorted nasal support structures
Nasal valve collapse or airflow compromise
Greater unpredictability in healing
Successful revision rhinoplasty requires advanced skills in structural rhinoplasty, airway reconstruction, and cartilage grafting — often using septal, ear, or rib cartilage.
This level of surgery should only be undertaken by surgeons with subspecialty rhinology and facial plastic training.

Extensive experience in:
