Nasal asymmetry may be ok
At just over two weeks from surgery, the asymmetries may be due to swelling, pressure from an external nasal splint, and/or a structural change. You should discuss this with your doctor. It is not unusual to wait several months prior to any correction to allow for the natural swelling and healing after nasal surgery to abate. These early asymmetries may self-correct. Thanks.

Asymmetry of nose
Asymmetry is the norm, but early post-op there may be some differential swelling and I would give it time to heal.

Asymmetrical Tip and Nostrilos 16 Days Post Rhinoplasty
16 days after a rhinoplasty temporary asymmetrical swelling is normal. Be patieent and watch your nose change as swelling resolves.
