    Undergoing a primary rhinoplasty can be daunting, as it requires a great deal of trust placed in one’s plastic surgeon to begin with. This is why it can be doubly frustrating when one’s initial aesthetic goals are not achieved.

    Dr. Fechner performs revision rhinoplasty to correct the work of previous surgeons or to mitigate changes that occurred in the nose after an accident or injury. His rigorous training background, elite skill set, and consummate artistry allow Dr. Fechner to overcome a variety of obstacles such as excess scar tissue and a loss of cartilage to provide you with a truly beautiful, nuanced final result.

    What is revision rhinoplasty?

    When a plastic surgeon goes too far during a rhinoplasty procedure and over-removes bone and cartilage, it can result in structural imbalances that inhibit proper breathing. Alternatively, when a surgeon doesn’t go far enough in creating the requested changes, it can leave the patient feeling disappointed and frustrated with their results.

    Dr. Fechner performs revision rhinoplasty to correct problems that may have arisen during your primary nose surgery, beautifully restoring both form and function to the midface. If you are unhappy with your nasal bridge, tip, nostrils, or breathing after a previous rhinoplasty, call us today to schedule your private consultation with Dr. Fechner in the Boston and Worcester area.

    What are the benefits of ethnic rhinoplasty?

    • Improves breathing
    • Enhances nasal symmetry
    • Corrects imbalances in the bridge, tip, and nostrils
    • Creates harmony among the features
    • Boosts self-confidence
    • Natural-looking changes
    • Long-lasting outcome

    Who is a good candidate?

    Anyone who is unhappy with the outcome of their first nose surgery can pursue a revision procedure, provided they have waited about one year for the swelling to die down. Most clients seeking revision nose surgery are struggling with one of the following:

    • Misshapen nostrils
    • Pinched or elongated tip
    • Creases around the nose
    • Difficulty breathing
    • Scooped bridge

    Dr. Fechner can correct these concerns and many more. Despite the complexity of revision rhinoplasty, Dr. Fechner is able to minimize scarring and expedite your recovery through his advanced, innovative approach. Call us today to schedule a private consultation in the Boston and Worcester area.

    What happens after revision rhinoplasty?

    Just as with a primary rhinoplasty, swelling, bruising, and tenderness may occur. Dr. Fechner will make sure you receive the proper pain medications as well as a detailed aftercare plan for managing your recovery. The nose may feel “stuffed” for a period of time, but rest assured that this is perfectly normal and will resolve over time. Within about two weeks, you’ll begin seeing the beginnings of your new nasal shape emerge, and your confidence will soar. Call Dr. Fechner in Boston today to get started on your path to a better quality of life.

    Why choose Dr. Fechner?

    Dr. Fechner is a board-certified Facial Plastic Surgeon whose combination of skill, training, experience, and artistry consistently delivers exceptional, natural-looking results to patients in the Boston and Worcester areas. He is committed to providing a personalized outcome for his revision rhinoplasty clients, correcting flaws and imbalances while beautifully achieving your original aesthetic goals.

    Born and raised in Germany, Dr. Fechner first attended the University of Freiburg Medical School before completing his training with an elite scholarship at the University of Massachusetts Medical School in Worcester. He then pursued a surgical internship at Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) and a four-year residency at the Harvard-affiliated Massachusetts Eye and Ear Infirmary in Boston.

    WE ARE EXCITED TO WELCOME YOU BACK TO FECHNER MD!

    On behalf of the entire team at Fechner MD Plastic Surgery & Medical Spa, we would like to take a moment to say thank you again for your loyalty and support during this unprecedented time. The past several months have been unlike anything we've ever experienced, and we're working hard to evolve so that we can continue to provide you with the patient experience you have come to expect from our practice.

    Since the beginning of the COVID-19 worldwide pandemic, Fechner MD Plastic Surgery & Medical Spa has taken extreme precautionary measures, in addition to following the most up to date CDC recommendations and state guidelines to maximize the health and safety of our patients, staff and facility. Our surgical center and medical spa remain committed to providing the best patient care, and we are actively working to take all necessary precautions as we plan to safely re-open our practice. Please help us continue to protect the health and well-being of our patients and workplace by cooperating with all of our precautionary measures and protocols against COVID-19 at your next appointment, or as you plan for your surgery.

     

    WHAT ARE WE DOING TO KEEP YOU AND OUR STAFF SAFE?

    As a fully accredited surgical facility, Fechner MD has always observed the highest level of safety and sanitation. In fact, as a surgeon, Dr. Fechner is an expert in infection control. We want to ensure that we are doing everything possible for our patients to safely return for surgical and medical spa treatments alike.

    • Our accredited practice is exclusively reserved for our patients and staff.
    • Our facility is in a single, free standing building only occupied by our practice. This allows us to limit foot traffic to our patients and staff only.
    • Our staff work only at our facility and all travel in private transport. All of us are otherwise self-isolating at home.
    • We closely monitor our staff for symptoms and elevated temperature daily.
    • We sterilize all our instruments in house further reducing potential exposure.
    • We have PPE to meet our needs.
    • All our staff members will be using appropriate PPE including N95 masks and protective facei shields, goggles and head coverings.
    • We have purchased and installed air scrubbers throughout the facility to clean the air while the practice is open to patients.
    • We have purchased and installed ozone generators designed to sanitize the air in the facility at the end of each day.
    • We have purchased and installed touchless hand sanitizer units throughout the building.
    • We have purchased and installed plexi-glass protective shields in the reception area to provide a protective barrier for staff and patients.
    • Our staff continues to adhere to social distancing guidelines within our facility.
    • We have implemented a stringent survey and testing protocol for staff and patients.
    • We have implemented a virtual check in/ check out process for our patients.
    • We have ensured that there is minimum interaction of patients with other people while in the office.
    • We will continue to offer virtual consults and virtual follow up visits.
    • We provide you with a touchless payment system.

    The upgraded work flow and safety protocols we have implemented at Fechner MD far exceed those being recommended by any government agency.

     

    WHEN WILL FECHNER MD PLASTIC SURGERY & MEDICAL SPA OPEN?

    Fechner MD will adhere to all local, state, and government mandates. We expect to cautiously resume medical spa and injectable treatments during Phase 2 of the Massachusetts phased reopening. We are awaiting a definitive date from Governor Baker. Cosmetic surgery is expected to resume during Phase 3 of Governor Baker’s plan. We ask for your patience and understanding as our staff is working diligently to reschedule all surgeries and procedures affected by our closure. Please understand that in order to open and adhere to Massachusetts guidelines, we will need to limit the number of staff and patients we have in our building and extend the time between patient appointments in order to sanitize rooms. This means we will have fewer available openings for procedures. In order to maximize our provider appointments, we will continue to hold consultations virtually rather than in person, with a few exceptions (body contouring, Instalift, vein treatments).
