When/what Symptoms Make Revision Septoplasty a Necessity?

Underwent septoplasty (6 months ago), and since it seems I consistently had under eye tension, headache, breathing "imbalance" feeling, &"moisture" type issue: Dehydrated skin facially, some scalp tension and excessive consistent hair shedding. Surgeon did no rhinoplasty, nose is crooked, but most seem to think as I can move air out of both nostrils I'm fine. Had turbinates resection, no major difference. Lots of yawning. There seems to be no focus on the symptoms or problems associated with a bad or "incompleted" nasal procedure, could anyone please shed some light on what exactly I would be dealing with problematically?
