Rhinoplasty to Fix Only One Side of the Nose?

December 29, 2009
Asked By:Anna Paula in Vienna

I have decided to have a rhinoplasty. I don't hate my nose, but my deviated tip and my right profile bother me. I have strong cartilage but very thin skin, therefore I have noticed that the cartilage from the right side of my nose tip is larger than the left one. Consequently my tip looks deviated to the right. On the other hand I have a small bump on the left side of my bridge that bizarrely can just be seen from my 3/4 right profile. Can the right side be fixed without changing the left one? I appreciate very much the way you are sharing your knowledge. Thanks!
