What Is Revision Rhinoplasty?
Revision rhinoplasty is a surgical procedure used to correct problems of an aesthetic and/or functional nature resulting from a primary rhinoplasty surgery. Patients may be unhappy with the overall appearance of the nose or with certain features.
Commonly addressed issues include asymmetry, the presence of a callus or bump, a polly beak deformity, a pinched tip, an over- or under-projected tip, an over-operated look, and excessive scarring.
Revision rhinoplasty can be one of the most difficult plastic surgery procedures to perform, often requiring both technical and artistic skill. Located in Newport Beach and Beverly Hills in Southern California, Dr. Batniji has extensive experience in revision rhinoplasty and correcting problems resulting from prior rhinoplasty surgeries performed by other surgeons.
Dr. Batniji specializes in facial plastic surgery and is board certified by the American Board of Facial Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery and by the American Board of Otolaryngology. He is well-known for creating beautiful, natural revision rhinoplasty results.
Rebuild and Refine Your Nose with Dr. Batniji
Your revision rhinoplasty surgery may be performed at a surgery center or a hospital in Newport Beach or Beverly Hills. Dr. Batniji is affiliated with several accredited outpatient surgery centers and hospitals, including Hoag Memorial Presbyterian Hospital.
Dr. Batniji regularly performs procedures at Fashion Island Surgical Center (easily accessible from Corona Del Mar) and at Newport Beach Surgery Center, right off the Pacific Coast Highway. He also performs procedures at Beverly Hills Surgical Center, located near Rodeo Drive.
The exact nature of the surgery will depend on your individual circumstances. Some patients may require a small touch-up, while others may require more extensive reconstruction. Local anesthesia and sedation or general anesthesia may be used.
The location of the incisions will depend on the extent of your surgery. Many revision rhinoplasty cases are performed using an open technique, in which a small incision is made across the skin between the nostrils. In some cases, a closed technique may be used, in which all incisions are confined to the inside of the nostrils.
Often, revision becomes necessary due to overly aggressive removal of cartilage and/or bone during the primary rhinoplasty surgery. For this reason, many revision rhinoplasty procedures require Dr. Batniji to recreate missing structures using grafts created from the patient’s own cartilage, which can be harvested from the septum, ear, or rib.

Frequently Asked Questions
Revision Rhinoplasty FAQs
Revision rhinoplasty is appropriate for healthy men and women who are looking to improve the look and/or function of their nose following a prior rhinoplasty surgery. Candidates should have reasonable expectations for improvement. Non-smokers are preferred, and smokers will need to quit before the date of their procedure.
Typically, patients are encouraged to wait until their primary rhinoplasty healing process is complete before getting revision rhinoplasty. This means waiting a year to 18 months after primary rhinoplasty. This gives the tissues time to fully settle, revealing the procedure's final results.
A splint is applied to the nose after revision rhinoplasty surgery in Beverly Hills, and it will remain in place for approximately one week. Most patients can return to work and other non-strenuous activities within about one week.
Post-surgical bruising and swelling will be present. About 70% to 85% of the swelling should fade within one month, while the remaining swelling will resolve over time. To decrease swelling, patients should keep their head elevated at all times and should apply an ice pack as directed.
