Septum deviate to right & uneven sidewalls & nostrils, what needs to be done? (Photos)

I would recommend a revision rhinoplasty with rib graft. There are many issues happening with this nose that need to be addressed with adequate structural support.

Hi, It is better for you to consult with a facial plastic surgeon who can examine you and give you opinion based on your needs and expectations.

If you are looking to achieve improved symmetry in the lower 1/3 of your nose, the best advice is to visit a reputable rhinoplasty specialist. It is very difficult to advise you without the ability to examine Thank you for this question. Sincerely, Dr Joseph

You would benefit from a rhinoplasty and septoplasty using an open approach. The cartilage has to be realigned as well as the bone. The tip needs to be refined at the same time.

Best Wishes,

Thank you for your question. You are an excellent candidate for rhinoplasty, In your case, you would need a septoplasty and something called spreader grafts to straighten nose. I think it is one of the most beautifying surgeries that we do as plastic surgeons. A large portion of my practice is dedicated to rhinoplasty surgery. It is important to only see plastic surgeons with extensive experience in rhinoplasty, ie perform at least 6 per month and have performed hundreds of cases. Also, critically evaluate on-line galleries to see if their art form resonates with yours. Rhinoplasty is definitely a grey haired plastic surgeon's sport. Best wishes to you.

It says you’ve had 4 or 5 previous procedures. Very difficult case. Will probably need to travel to find someone who specializes in revisions.

Hello and thank you for your question. Based on your photographs, your nose could be straightened with extended spreader grafts, extended alar contour grafts, septal reset, nasal tip deprojection, among other maneuvers. With good surgical technique, you could have an outstanding result. I recommend that you seek consultation with a qualified board-certified rhinoplasty surgeon who can evaluate you in person.

Best wishes and good luck.

You seem to be good candidate for septorhinoplasty. This complex procedure will address all functional issues with your airway as well as aesthetic aspect of the nose. A series of cartilage grafts needed for reconstruction will be harvested from cartilage removed during septoplasty. In person or teleconference with a board certified plastic surgeon, expert in rhinoplasty, is recommended. Good luck.

Thank you for sharing your concerns and photos. It seems like the structural and aesthetic issues you’re experiencing are causing you discomfort. A facial plastic surgeon can often address these concerns with rhinoplasty or revision rhinoplasty. I recommend scheduling an in-person consultation with a board-certified facial plastic surgeon. A knowledgeable provider specializing in rhinoplasty and revision rhinoplasty can help you address your cosmetic and functional concerns while delivering beautiful, natural-looking results. Good luck and be well!

It appears that you have internal nasal valve collapse and asymmetric support to your tip. Treatment of this would require internal nasal valve spreader grafts along with open rhinoplasty and possible cartilage harvest from ears or ribs. I would recommend that you discuss with your primary surgeon.
