Your nose is one of the most defining features of your face — its balance and proportion impact your overall appearance. If a previous rhinoplasty didn’t achieve the desired results or caused functional concerns, revision rhinoplasty at Sculpt Aesthetics & Plastic Surgery in McLean, VA can restore harmony, function, and confidence.
Revision rhinoplasty is a highly specialized procedure requiring artistic precision and advanced surgical expertise. Whether you're looking to refine aesthetic outcomes, correct breathing difficulties, or reconstruct nasal structure, our board-certified cosmetic surgeons approach each case with customization, care, and skill.
Revision rhinoplasty, also called secondary rhinoplasty, is a corrective nasal surgery designed to refine or reconstruct the nose after a previous rhinoplasty.
It may address aesthetic concerns, breathing difficulties, or structural complications that arose after the first procedure.

Scar tissue, cartilage loss, and prior alterations require advanced surgical techniques and an eye for facial balance to achieve the best outcome.
We focus on restoring confidence with natural, proportional, and functional results that align with your facial harmony and personal goals.
