The average Revision Rhinoplasty Turkey Cost 2026 reflects the highly complex nature of reconstructive surgery required to correct the outcomes of a previous failed procedure. We deeply understand the frustration, emotional trauma, and loss of confidence that comes with a “botched” primary surgery, and our mission is to provide a transparent, safe, and expert pathway to restoring both your breathing and your profile.
Why is Revision 50% More Expensive than Primary Rhinoplasty?
Patients often ask why the price is significantly higher than their first surgery. The answer lies in the complexity of reconstruction. Unlike a primary nose job, a revision surgeon is working on a “damaged” canvas. We encounter extensive Scar Tissue, which alters the blood supply and makes tissue dissection difficult. More critically, there is often a profound Loss of Structural Support because the previous surgeon may have removed too much of your natural septal cartilage.
To rebuild the nose, we often cannot find enough cartilage inside the nose itself. Therefore, the surgeon must perform a secondary procedure to harvest Costal Cartilage (Rib Graft) or Conchal Cartilage (Ear Graft). This biological material is essential to create strong structural grafts that can support the nasal tip and bridge, turning a cosmetic touch-up into a major reconstructive operation.
Clinic Care Center: Expert Warning (The 1-Year Rule)
The most dangerous mistake in revision surgery is impatience. We strictly adhere to the 1-Year Rule. You must wait at least 12 months after your last surgery before attempting a revision. Operating on inflamed tissue increases the risk of skin necrosis and permanent deformity. We prioritize tissue health over speed. Please do not ask us to operate sooner; your safety is our ethical obligation.

Package Inclusions & Potential Extra Costs
Our goal is to provide a comprehensive package that covers the major medical expenses, allowing you to focus on healing. Standard packages typically include General Anesthesia, Surgeon Fees (including graft harvesting), 4-5 Star Hotel Accommodation, and VIP Transfers.
However, transparency is vital for reconstructive cases. You should budget for potential Hidden Costs: Rib Cartilage Processing (sometimes an extra fee depending on the method used, like dicing), a Longer Hotel Stay (Revision patients often need 10 days instead of 7 for close monitoring), and Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (sometimes recommended for smokers or patients with compromised skin to accelerate healing).
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Why do you need to take cartilage from my rib?
If your septum was depleted (removed) during your first surgery, we need a strong, straight source of cartilage to rebuild the structural framework of your nose. Your own rib cartilage is the gold standard because it is abundant, strong, and biocompatible (no risk of rejection), unlike synthetic silicone implants which carry a higher risk of infection and extrusion in revision cases.
Is rib harvesting painful?
The nose itself is usually not very painful, but the rib extraction site (a small incision under the breast) can be sore for a few days, similar to a muscle strain. We use nerve blocks and advanced pain management protocols to ensure you are comfortable.
Can you fix my breathing (Septoplasty) during revision?
Yes. Many revision patients suffer from collapsed nasal valves or a deviated septum from the first surgery. Functional repair is a core part of the procedure. We use grafts to “spreader” the airways open, improving airflow permanently.
What if my nose is too small/short (Short Nose Deformity)?
This is a common complication of aggressive primary surgery. We use “derotation grafts” and “septal extension grafts” (usually from the rib) to physically lengthen the nose and push the tip down to a more natural, aesthetically pleasing angle.
What is the success rate of revision rhinoplasty?
Revision rhinoplasty has a high success rate when performed by a specialist, but it is important to have realistic expectations. The goal is “improvement,” not “perfection.” While we aim for significant aesthetic and functional restoration, the limitations of your skin and scar tissue dictate the final result.
Will the swelling last longer than the first time?
Yes. Because the lymphatic drainage pathways were disrupted during the first surgery and are disturbed again during the second, swelling takes longer to resolve. You should expect significant swelling for the first 3-6 months, with the final definition of the tip taking up to 1.5 to 2 years to fully emerge.
