I was wondering what the difference is between an ear nose and throat doctor and a facial plastic surgeon or plastic surgeon? Can my ENT do my nose job ok if I went to him for a deviated septum?
**Note from RealSelf** Our site is designed to help consumers make confident choices and the below answers have lost this spirit.
To see the criteria RealSelf uses to list a doctor as a Facial Plastic Surgeon, please visit our Professional Policies. Doctors listed as a 'Facial Plastic Surgeon' on RealSelf are eligible to discuss treatments and procedures for any "neck-up" procedures, including those of the face, ear, nose and throat areas. As always, consumers should do their due-diligence in researching an individual doctors experience and credentials when choosing their surgeon.
An otolaryngologist/head & neck surgeon is trained to operate on all structures in the head and neck excluding brains, spines, and eyeballs (in a nutshell). 25% of the board certification exam for otolaryngologists covers facial plastic and reconstructive surgery. The term "ENT" is an abbreviation for an otolaryngologist.
Facial plastic & reconstructive surgeons can become board certified as such in one of two ways. First, they can complete an accredited fellowship focusing in FPRS only for at least one year following completion of EITHER an "ENT" or plastic surgery residency. They must then complete an oral and written board exam and submit a case log of at least 1 1/2 years of procedures performed to establish competence. Alternatively, board-certified "ENTs" or plastic surgeons that do not complete a fellowship must submit a more extensive case log and pass the same exams.
Hope that helps.
I was mugged about a month ago and was punched in the nose at a side angle and cause my nose to be deviated. I had to have closed reduction and septoplasty, after exactly two weeks. Now its been a week and a half or so since the operation and the swelling is going down. I look at my nose and it still looks curved to me. Especially on camera. I feel around my nose bridge where the curve is and it feels like cartilage is missing. I also have a bump and wonder if that will go away?
While no two sides of the face are the same, and differences between the right and the left side of the nose will ALWAYS be present, it is too early to tell what the final result will be on your case. Your front view does look slightly asymmetric, as the swelling settles in the next several months the appearance may change.

I got a rhinoplasty a month ago and there is a huge indention in the nostril base on the left side. It makes my profile from the left look much worse than the right... Even if the doctor 'smooths it out,' how will this raise the indention? He almost gets offended when I ask about it. Has anyone ever seen this? I completely did not expect this. Trent
It appears that what you are referring to, is the area where part of the incision was placed during surgery.
The indentation could be from several causes, such as swelling, a suture having broken loose, healing, and incision placement, among others.
Since you are only a month from surgery , I would wait for the swelling to go down, If still there, dermabrasion, or scar revision can be done to camouflage the incision better.
Best,
