Rhinoplasly is arguably one of the most difficult procedures to perfonn in plastic surgery. Subtle defects of only a few millimeters can mean the difference between a satisfied and unsatisfied patient. In some cases, nasal defects can be addressed by revision surgery; revision rates are estimated to range from 4 to 1%, although revisions are probably greatly undeireported.' Yet nasal revision s...
