Should I get revision rhinoplasty? (Photo)

November 16, 2014
Asked By:cdhelp in Montclair, NJ

I had rhinoplasty 12 years ago and was very happy with the results. Over time the right side of my nose got a little concave and the original doctor injected silicone 1000 to fix it. I had really good results and am happy. However, he wants to revise the tip as it is slightly asymmetrical. He would not charge me much at all. But he says there is 80% success rate - but is pretty sure of good results. My husband doesn't want me to do it. Not sure if I should - would love opinions.
