The overall satisfaction rate for rhinoplasty or nose job is generally high, and most people are happy with the results. However, as with any surgical procedure, there are risks and potential complications. The percentage of nose jobs that "go wrong" can vary depending on the definition of what constitutes a "botched" surgery.
According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, the revision rate for primary rhinoplasty (where a patient undergoes rhinoplasty for the first time) is about 5-15%, which means that up to 15% of people may need to have a revision surgery due to unsatisfactory results. However, it's important to note that not all of these cases are considered "botched" or "gone wrong" - some may be due to a difference in aesthetic preferences, healing complications, or other factors.
The likelihood of a successful outcome largely depends on the surgeon's skill and experience, the patient's expectations and overall health, and the complexity of the procedure. It's important to thoroughly research and choose a qualified and experienced surgeon, and to have realistic expectations and open communication about the potential risks and benefits of the procedure.
