Nose Asymmetry

Farbod Esmailian, MD answers: Does nose surgery fix asymmetrical nostrils?

i'm okay with the shape of the nose and all but whenever i take a picture, my nose always bothers me because of it's asymmetry. in real life, it's hardly noticeable but in pictures it's REALLY noticeable. can nose surgery fix this without scars? and how much would it cost? thank you.

Looking at your pictures, it is very difficult to assess that you have asymmetry.  It is not very significant and I would bet you would have a tough time to find a plastic surgeon willing to operate on this.  Nostril asymmetries can be fixed with surgery but since your asymmetry is minimal I dont think it would be worth the risk of surgery.

Good luck.
