Hanging columella uneven on each side. What can be done? (Photo)

February 22, 2015
Asked By:Zkjsp in Dallas, TX

I had an open rhinoplasty 8 months ago. I'm fairly happy, as my nose is much smaller. However, my my tip is wide in the front and on my right side you can see my nostril much more than my left. I think I have a bit of a retracted nostril, but I still think my columella hangs, especially on the right. From the front, I have a V shape. Can anything be done under local anesthesia or should I go under a full revision? Thank you.
