[B]Rhinoplasty - Breathing problems post-surgery[/B]

Has anyone had any breathing problems AFTER a rhinoplasty, where your nasal function was worse? I've heard some horror stories about that.

My own experience has been that I breathe better than ever after my last rhinoplasty. It would certainly be terrible if you were breathing worse after surgery. I can at least say that it shouldn't happen!

I had rhinoplasty 3 years ago and had to have another op 12 months after, I now suffer from runny nose, breathing problems, and constantly feel bunged up, its terrible as it effects everything you do.

Re: [B]Rhinoplasty - Breathing problems post-surgery[/B]

I had a rhinoplasty done by a world-renowned, top surgeon on the field, and I was left with serious breathing problems. One side of my nose is almost completely defunct, while the other side is also hard to breathe through. Know that breathing impairment is a very serious complication of rhinoplasty, and it can really decrease quality of life.

I am currently searching for a doctor with expertise in revision rhinoplasty, particularly in restoring breathing function. Please [ removed ] or post if you can help. Thank you so much!

Try Dr. Toriumi - he is a revision specialist and definitely an expert in the functionality of the nose. Who did your first rhinoplasty?
