Why is the left side of my nose skinnier than the right side after nose job? (Photos)

Question

It’s been 5-6 months since I had my nose done. My problem is that my left side is skinnier than the right side. I don’t know if it’s because of the swelling and because my nose was broken before the surgery and I had it done because my nose bridge was crooked. My nostrils are symmetrical but my nose tip isn’t.

hello gizem,considering the very limited two photos you've uploaded our analysis is like this:your right eye medial canthus to nose bridge distance and light eye medial canthus to nose bridge distance is different and possibly this is a factor why the left side looks skinny compared to the right. so the good news is if thats what bothering you this can be improved but having a face-to-face or virtual consultation with professionally and symetrically taken full-face photo of your face and having a consultation is the way to go. please discuss it with your primary surgeon first and give your nose some time until everything settles down ( 1 year) and if you are not satisfied with the response of your primary surgeon you can always consider having second opinions,good luck doctor be+ clinic
