Asked By:Gentle379796 in Columbus, Ohio

Hello, I had a rhinoplasty done about 6 months ago, and one side of my nose looks completely different than the other side. I don’t even know how to describe it without pictures, front view on my nose my nasal bone sticks out more than the other side along with my nostrils on one side. I dont even know what to do, or if nasal rasping will help this weird asymmetry thats happening. My side profile looks different on both sides. Please let me know what is going on here so I can get some clarity.
