What's the best way to fix my caudal deviation?

Asked By:mateo222 in East Texas, PA

I want to fix my caudal deviation, however, it seems to be a difficult problem to fix per the literature. This would be a revision procedure (1st caused it or didn't fix it - not sure). I have an L strut and the deviation feels like a slight C shape. One method mentioned was removal of the nasal crest and relocation of the septum on the other side of the nasal spine. Is this recommended and/or safe? Another method was the tongue in groove. Not sure that I have sufficient columella for this.
