Asymmetrical Swelling or Bad Rhinoplasty?

Hello,Asymmetric nostrils can be a result of several issues including: 
Deviated septum- a deviated central portion can contribute
Asymmetric facial structure- Almost every person’s face is asymmetric and imbalance can lead to difference in nostril appearance
Asymmetric nasal cartilage structure- Natural noses as well as those operated on can have asymmetry resulting in nostril asymmetry
Facial muscle imbalance- Some patients will have a dominant side that they smile or express on leading to imbalance.  Dynamic change (change which happens while expressing) is often a result of muscular imbalance.
Rhinoplasty can be used to make nostrils appear more symmetrical but it is almost impossible to make nostrils exactly the same.  Improvement and not perfection should be the goal.

Thank

you for submitting your question. Your very early in your recovery from
a rhinoplasty. Swelling after a rhinoplasty, with
tip and septal work will last for a year. Swelling can cause temporary asymmetry. Discuss your
concerns
with your surgeon and follow his/her advise. Best wishes

In general, swelling after rhinoplasty takes months and months to fully resolve. You'll notice your nose is swollen at the moment. The initial swelling may disappear after 2 weeks, but that doesn't mean you still don't have any swelling right now. You should wait at least a year before considering revision rhinoplasty.
