Asked By:angelbaby3993 in Atlanta, GA

I had rhinoplasty 8 months ago to fix a bump at the top of my nose . It looks great, but my tip is leaning more to my left. Because of this, it's causing my right side to push up against the inside of my nose blocking my airway. If I take my finger and move my tip more to the center my breathing is fine. It really bothers me. I go back to see my surgeon in 5 months. I will bring this up, again. What would my surgeon need to do to fix this issue? Is it a big revision to straighten it?
