I am 27 years old and have a crooked nose. I have been insecure about it since I was young. I want to know if I have a deviated septum and I choose to go the septoplasty route if it’ll even change the look of it or straighten it out? Otherwise I would definitely do rhinoplasty. I would also of course get a chin implant.

Answer: Septoplasty vs. Rhinoplasty Hello and thank you for your question! A septoplasty is going to help fix the functional abilities of your nose caused by your reported deviated septum, whereas a rhinoplasty will help to straighten the nose and get it to the shape you want. A combo septorhinoplasty can be done to fix both the shape and functional issues of your nose with 1 surgery, and based on your description of your issues would be the best option for you. As always, it would be best to seek an in-office consult with a plastic and reconstructive surgeon to assess what procedures and techniques would work best for your aesthetic goals. Hope this helps!

Answer: Septo/rhino Hello, In order to further determine if you have a deviated septum it would be beneficial to schedule a in person consult with a plastic surgeon. The in person consult would also help determine if a septoplasty or a rhinoplasty would benefit you.
