Rhinoplasty is a popular cosmetic procedure chosen by many people to correct nasal imperfections, enhancing the nose’s height, elegance, and balance to harmonize with the face. However, nose surgery also carries many risks due to various factors: unskilled surgeons, unlicensed aesthetic clinics, and more. These can lead to complications such as nasal deformities, failed surgeries, or even necrosis after rhinoplasty. So, what is the safest correction method? Which clinic is reputable for correcting failed nose surgeries? All these questions will be answered in this article.

Causes of Failed Nose Surgeries

In theory, rhinoplasty is a simple procedure with a low risk of complications. However, in reality, it is not as straightforward as it seems, due to several subjective factors that lead to complications after surgery, such as:

Unreliable Aesthetic Clinics

Low-quality aesthetic clinics are one of the main causes of failed nose surgeries. These clinics often fail to ensure proper hygiene and sterilization, making it easy for bacteria to enter the surgical site during the procedure. Additionally, there is a risk of cross-contamination of viruses from previous patients, which increases the likelihood of post-surgery infections. Low-quality clinics often use outdated, unreliable equipment, which not only results in suboptimal aesthetic outcomes but also increases the risk of nose deformities, infections, or even necrosis.

Unqualified Surgeons

The qualifications, skills, and experience of the surgeon play a crucial role in a successful rhinoplasty. If the surgeon lacks sufficient expertise to assess the condition of the nose or understand the client’s desires to choose the most suitable method, it becomes challenging to achieve an aesthetically pleasing and safe result.
Surgeons who do not strictly follow the Ministry of Health’s approved rhinoplasty procedures may cause infections, which can lead to pus formation and even necrosis over time.

Incorrect Post-Surgery Care

Another factor contributing to a failed nose surgery is improper post-operative care. This includes not following the surgeon’s instructions, failing to clean the wound, exposing it to dirty water without disinfecting, using stimulants, or not taking medications as prescribed. Some patients are not provided with proper post-operative care guidelines, leaving them unsure of what to do, while some clinics provide insufficient aftercare procedures and fail to monitor the patient’s recovery process. This can affect the healing process and lead to complications with the nose.

Low-Quality Implant Materials

Using poor-quality implant materials that do not meet standards can cause them to be incompatible with the body. These materials cannot be properly absorbed or expelled by the body, which may result in irritation, infections, or even necrosis.

2. Cases of Failed Nose Surgery That Should Be Corrected

It is not difficult to recognize a failed nose surgery. If your nose is experiencing any of the following conditions, you should immediately seek out services for correcting a failed nose to save your nasal shape in time:

Crooked or Twisted Nose

A crooked nose is one of the most common complications. This condition is noticeable when viewed from the front, with a visibly misaligned nasal bridge that affects both aesthetics and facial harmony. Over time, it can also impact breathing.
The causes of a crooked nose include improper placement of the implant material, an unskilled surgeon, or trauma from a strong impact, which leads to the nose becoming twisted.

Exposed Nasal Bridge

Exposing the nasal bridge is one of the clearest signs of a failed nose surgery. This condition is mainly caused by the skin at the tip of the nose being too thin while the nasal cartilage is too thick, causing the nasal bridge to protrude and the skin to stretch, revealing the nasal bridge.

Red, Swollen Tip of the Nose

If the tip of your nose becomes red and swollen, causing discomfort, you should not ignore it. This is one of the signs of a failed nose surgery, which may indicate irritation and an incompatible implant material. In this case, you should seek out a reputable aesthetic clinic to correct the issue as soon as possible.

Infection / Necrosis

This is one of the most severe complications of a failed rhinoplasty. Necrosis causes the nose to deform completely from its original shape. Although this situation is rare, it can still occur if the surgery is performed at a low-quality clinic that uses substandard implant materials.

Solutions for Correcting a Failed or Deformed Nose

• For Cases of Necrosis: The surgeon will perform a skin graft from the groin or abdomen (skin above the cesarean section scar) to cover the nasal tip. After about 6 months, the skin color will match the surrounding area.
• For Cases of Structural Rhinoplasty with Mild Deformation, Nose Deformities Less Than 50%, Inflammation, or Injury from an Accident:
  If the nose was previously inflamed, the best approach is to perform a simple sline (straightening) and support the nose with septal cartilage, along with covering the nasal tip with fat tissue.
• For Clients Who Have Previously Had Filler Injections:

• For Noses with Fillers Injected Within 1 Year: The filler will need to be dissolved, and after 5-7 days, a new rhinoplasty can be performed.
• For Noses with Fillers Injected Between 1-5 Years: The filler cannot be dissolved but must be completely removed before proceeding with corrective surgery.

For Clients Who Have Previously Had Filler Injections and Now Desire Implant Materials:
Clients who have had filler injections must dissolve the filler before undergoing surgery. Some important notes:

• Dissolving the filler before surgery is mandatory to minimize post-surgery risks, such as infection, uneven skin appearance, or vascular blockages.
• The ideal waiting time between filler dissolution and surgery is 7 days. For clients who cannot wait, the period can be shortened to 3-5 days.
