Abstract
The present study assessed the most common deformities in often-revised noses and their predictable surgical treatments. This retrospective case series was designed to review different aspects of patients with rhinoplasty who had more than 2 failed previous rhinoplasties. The main requests of patients, number of operations, and final surgical plan for management of these deformities were reviewed and analyzed. This study included 38 patients (27 women, and 11 men) who underwent multiple (2 to 10) unsuccessful rhinoplasties before being operated on by the author from 2011 to 2016. Pinch deformity (14 patients), breathing problems (13 patients), and irregularities were the most common complaints. The conchal cartilage (31 patients) and fascia (19 cases) were the most common graft donor sites in definitive treatments. The present study shows that multiple failed rhinoplasties can be properly corrected. Effective management of these patients is best started after a comprehensive preoperative assessment. Then, a conservative predictable approach can be used to overcome the flaws of previous surgeries.
