Unsuccessful plastic surgeries - an example of stars and ordinary people

Listen to the opinion of a specialist

In fact, rhinoplasty is rarely used as an operation to correct physical defects. It is practiced, for example, for congenital defects of the external nose, various injuries and damage. There are no questions here - this is a 100% indication for surgical intervention, because the quality of life suffers. In this case, nasal breathing may not be impaired, but it is impossible to live with the defect. And here the surgeon must make every effort to solve the person’s problem.

But in practice, an operation such as rhinoplasty is mainly used to obtain some kind of aesthetics - when a person goes from good to better. Usually they resort to it when people want attention, some changes and believe that changing the nose will lead to an improvement in life. And I must say, such an opinion has a right to life, because the nose is the most prominent part of the face, on which the eye initially falls when looking at the face. And if the nose is beautiful and aesthetic, it creates a favorable impression.

Mortal risk. Mistakes we make when caring for our nose When changing the shape of the nose, they often copy a famous person. For example, we like a famous Hollywood star, and we decide to try on ourselves at least partially in her image. However, not everyone understands that sometimes it is technically impossible to do what you want. Like a hairstyle - for example, I have straight hair, but I want curly, but this cannot be done forever, only with a short-term effect at best. Thus, it is difficult to correct the nose if there is a deficiency of tissue - cartilage, bone, skin, etc. Then the risks of thinning the nose even further and making it sharp increase. However, it happens that when a person hears from a surgeon that in such a situation it is better not to experiment, he psychologically perceives this as a lack of qualifications of a doctor and goes to look for another. As a result of a long search, he finds and gets a rather unexpected result.

Here it is important to understand that these operations are paid, so a doctor who has the necessary knowledge and skills will not refuse them just because he doesn’t want to. Doctors rarely deceive and make a deal with their conscience. Therefore, to avoid disappointment as a result, you should collect at least three opinions from competent and recognized doctors to assess your prospects. Then you won't have to be disappointed.

Who should have the surgery

There is also a subtle nuance - who should perform the operation: an ENT surgeon or a plastic surgeon. In my opinion, such an intervention should be performed by an ENT surgeon who is certified and experienced as a plastic surgeon. Such a specialist does not work throughout the body, he is only occupied in the zygomatic-orbital area: the external nose, cheeks. Because it is important not only to correct the outside of the nose, but also not to forget about proper nasal breathing.

Complications

The nose has a frame structure. When we look at it, we often identify it with the roof of a house. So, both of them have a ramp. And if you make a mistake during the operation, you can break the frame. The nose may collapse, become dislodged, or even collapse. In the case of surgery, the nasal septum cannot withstand the operation because it has been greatly thinned. The plastic surgeon does not look into the nasal cavity, he usually looks from above. He understands that the nose must become different, more elegant - the task is clear. And he will not be distracted by looking at the nasal cavity, but will watch until the postoperative swelling subsides. An ENT surgeon monitors the condition inside.

After all, synechiae and adhesions can form inside the nasal cavity, which does not allow the nose to breathe fully later. And if synechiae begin to form, they can then haunt a person throughout his life.

Question answer

Why is it dangerous to sneeze with your mouth and nose closed? It is important to understand that surgery on the external nose, as well as on the nasal septum, is usually irreversible in most cases. Correcting someone is called reoperation. Because the mucous membrane and skin are all peeled off one by one, the nose is disassembled, including the septum, then the correct shape is given, the mucous membrane is sutured, tamponed (special tampons are put in, which create a frame from the inside), a plaster bandage is applied on top so that the person does not touch it fingers so that everything doesn’t slide to the side when he goes to bed. The plaster hardens and gives the desired frame, everything grows together, and that’s it - it will be difficult to fix anything. And it’s impossible to make it so that this year I want a nose like Angelina Jolie’s, and next year like Britney Spears’. This story can lead to sad consequences, like, for example, Michael Jackson.

Among the external complications are the remaining scars - instead of a cosmetic scar, a large keloid, dents, creases, wrinkles. Here you can correct it with injection cosmetology or reoperation, when an implant is placed from cartilage or special medical plastic, which the body will accept normally.

A problem can develop inside when the nose becomes narrowed and a person cannot breathe normally. And there is also the problem of the valve effect. When we sharply inhale air, the wings of the nose are pulled towards the septum. And during the operation, the wings can become so thin that they become excessively mobile. A person even has to hold them while inhaling like that.

LEGAL THINGS

In our country, the protection of the rights of victims of plastic surgery is not as developed as abroad. Russian legislation spells out the actions that should be taken - references to the official bill “On the Protection of Consumer Rights” will help with this.

Unsuccessful plastic surgery can be classified in court as:

If the result is unsuccessful, you should protect your rights and interests in court by hiring a lawyer.

Alternative

If an ENT doctor or plastic surgeon says that the issue is difficult to resolve, then it is better not to interfere. Today, injection cosmetology is becoming an alternative. This story is controlled - the drug is injected, and it can then be removed - put the syringe in and pull the drug back out. Injection cosmetology removes dents well and straightens bumps. Yes, you have to do it periodically, but this interval is not once every two weeks or a month, but once every six months or a year. This measure eliminates the need for a scalpel and psychological trauma, and can always be adjusted along the way.

And it is also important to remember that such an operation cannot be cheap, since it is painstaking. For an ENT surgeon with the necessary qualifications, it is estimated at 300 thousand rubles. Accordingly, if they offer to do it for 18 or even 25 thousand rubles, it’s worth thinking about. After all, it is unlikely that everything will be returned to the way it was.

There are contraindications, you should consult your doctor

What should you pay attention to?

A clinic specialist makes a decision about how long it will take to have a repeat plastic surgery. Ideally, wait a year before corrective measures.

It is recommended to adhere to the following rules:

1. If possible, the correction should be carried out by the same person who did it the previous time. He has a complete picture of the progress of the initial manipulation and can optimally plan revision rhinoplasty. This rule should not be followed in cases where the need for another surgical intervention is caused by poor performance of the doctor. If the specialist changes, you need to provide him with as much detailed information as possible - what materials were used, where the incisions were made, how the rehabilitation period went. You can provide photographs of the nose before and after the intervention, formulate in detail your wishes and reasons for dissatisfaction.

2. The patient must strictly follow all recommendations in the postoperative period. A qualified specialist will definitely try to create realistic expectations for the client before re-correction. Too rosy hopes can lead to disappointment and subsequent depression if they do not come true.

Rehabilitation

The postoperative period is easier than with the primary intervention. And the duration of rehabilitation is significantly reduced. The stitches are removed only after 7 days. Swelling and hematomas may be present for up to 4 weeks.

Depending on the patient’s condition, the doctor may prescribe physical therapy and ointments to allow the wounds to heal faster. Most reviews about the use of magnetic resonance therapy are positive.

Within six months after rhinoplasty it is recommended:

• Sleep only on your back.
• Don't blow your nose.
• Limit physical activity, especially bending forward, and do not lift heavy objects.
• Avoid being in direct sunlight; solarium is prohibited.
• When taking any medications, you should consult your doctor.

Otherwise, it is important to adhere to the rules of a healthy lifestyle - do not smoke or drink alcohol, walk more, take vitamins, sleep at least 8 hours a day.

For the first time after rhinoplasty, you should stop wearing glasses so as not to put strain on the bridge of your nose!

There are no special prohibitions on food, but it is necessary to limit the consumption of salt and sugar, smoked foods, and it is better to avoid fried foods.

Possible complications

All problems that arise can be divided into 3 groups:

1. Temporary complications arising from tissue injury: hematomas, swelling, decreased skin sensitivity, loss of smell, increased temperature in the first 2-3 days.

2. Functional disorders: abscesses, perforation of the nasal septum, atrophy of the nasal cartilage, difficulty breathing.

3. Aesthetic problems – when the patient is dissatisfied with his appearance even after successful correction. Often the reviews of others who are unaccustomed to a new type of person play a role here.

Most complications can be avoided if you responsibly choose a surgeon and a clinic where rhinoplasty will be performed, and follow the doctor’s instructions during the rehabilitation period.

Note! When selecting a specialist, you need to take into account not only his qualifications and the services that the rehabilitation clinic will offer, but also reviews from real clients who have already improved their appearance.

Service cost

The price of the procedure can vary significantly depending on the amount of work and the qualifications of the surgeon. If the reason for revision rhinoplasty is medical errors, a self-respecting specialist will do it for free. But this happens extremely rarely; in most cases, the clinic is able to prove that the patient himself did not follow the recommendations in the postoperative period.

The price for reoperation is higher than for primary surgery. In particularly difficult cases, it can reach 300,000 rubles.
