Here’s a repost of this Revision Asian DCF Rhinoplasty procedure from my Instagram account:
Caption: “This beautiful patient of mine underwent a Revision Rhinoplasty consisting of a DCF Rhinoplasty + Alar Base Reduction procedure. As you can see, her previous Rhinoplasty from another practice left her with an irregular upturned nose and a very visible dimple at the tip due to an infection from an L-shaped silicone implant (which was removed prior to this surgery and allowed to heal first). Here are her initial results from the O.R.”
