I was told after a rhinoplasty your nose is as strong or stronger than pre op... What I do not understand is if I have only a 1cm l strut. If i was born with a full septum how can a L strut be stronger or same strength if I have very little septum left. If you remove too much septum you can have saddle nose or collapse so how can a rhinoplasty increase strength? Can a doctor explain this?
