Twisted columella, uneven nostrils, deviated septum - do I need a third septorhinoplasty? or frourth surgery? (photos)

Uneven nostrils. Twisted columella. Deviated septum (again!). Want to correct due to self esteem & confidence. Surgery is the only solution. Surgeon reassuring, very experienced. Advises irradiated cartilage for further support. Also place betw nostrils to keep in place/avoid twisting. Open procedure.

Hi @Gentle39283. Thank you for sharing your photo. You are still early on in your healing process--I recommend waiting 1 year for the nose to fully heal before you consider a revision rhinoplasty. Best of luck, Dr. Nima
