Can the Function of the Upper Lip Change After Tension Nose is Released?
11704Mar 5, 2011
I had septorhinoplasty 4.5 years ago for a deviated septum and hump removal.To my suprise,after the surgery,I was told my anterior nasal spine was removed to fix a tension nose. I am very unhappy with the results.My upper lip was long to begin with and now it is even longer.It covers my upper teeth and functions differently when I speak.I also formed a horozontal line in the middle of my upper lip when I smile.The doctor has no explaination for my issues.Why did this happen and can it be fixed?
