How exactly can the 2 sides of my nose as seen in the pictures be fixed?? I went to multiple consultations and no one gave me a definite answer. As you can see from the image the left side is indented and not like the right. I really wanna fix this.Thanks in advance
Answer: Rhinoplasty Hi,Based on your photos, there is an obvious asymmetry due to the underlying structural anatomy. The cause is not immediately obvious, but it is likely a combination of a septal deviation, upper lateral cartilage weakness/collapse and lower lateral cartilage orientation or shape. The important thing is that a rhinoplasty can address and improve upon all of these issues. Best,

Answer: One of my side of nose is indented and weaker, is it fixable and how? Every nose is different and unique to that individual. If the appearance of your nose concerns you enough to do something about it, it can be improved with a natural artistically performed rhinoplasty. What would be the best option and exact procedure would depend on an in person examination (not just an online consultation) and discussion about desired outcome. Excellent results can be achieved with either a closed or open technique. Keep in mind that following advice from a surgeon on this or any other website who proposes to tell you exactly what to do and how technically to do it based on two dimensional photos without examining you, physically feeling your tissue, assessing your desired outcome, taking a full medical history and discussing the pros and cons of the operative procedure would not be in your best interest. Natural appearing results need to be individualized and what is appropriate for one patient is not necessarily the best for someone else. I would suggest that you find a surgeon with extensive rhinoplasty experience certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery and one who is ideally a member of The American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS) that you trust and are comfortable with. You should discuss your concerns with that surgeon in person. Robert Singer, M.D., FACS La Jolla, California

Answer: Rhinoplasty for correction of multiple issues. Rhinoplasty for correction of multiple issues. This surgery can improve the asymmetry of your nose but will not be perfect! It can be greatly improved however. See several very experienced rhinoplasty surgeons for an examination of your nose and plan of correction.

Answer: Nasal side wall indentation Thanks for your question and photos. Based on your description and photos, a rhinoplasty should be able to make the sides the sides symmetric. A qualified rhinoplasty surgeon should easily give you an assessment and corrective plan of action. Good Luck!
