Toby G. Mayer, MD answers: How to fix hereditary crooked nose?

Is there any way to fix a hereditary crooked nose? I know it's hereditary because my mom's nose is exactly the same, but she can put makeup and play with the shadows. It's like the bone on the bottom because it seems like the bone on one side is bigger and one side smaller, so like my whole nose is crooked.

Your nose and septum can be straightened with surgery. The result will usually be a straighter nose, but not always perfect. See an experienced rhinoplasty surgeon and discuss all of the other changes you would like as well. Make sure he does the kind of nose you like as well.
