Uneven nostrils after rhinoplasty and how to fix? (Photo)

Intelligent801672Feb 12, 2023

Hi! I had a rhinoplasty exactly a year ago so id say my healing is all done and this is my final nose. Before my rhinoplasty I didnt notice any uneven nostrils, however after my surgery one nostril is widee than the othee. i didnt get my nostrils done at all during surgery so I dont see why theyd suddently b different? Is it because my nose tip has been propped up more and its now changed the way it sits? The nostril thats wider now is alao more thick.

Hi @Phenomenal451973! Swelling after a rhinoplasty can last up to 1 year. I would wait the full 12 months and if you are still not satisfied, I would consider a revision rhinoplasty. Best of luck!

Adding filler to your left supra-alar crease for improved tip symmetry may be considered for a straighter and more symmetrical tip appearance. If you have breathing problems, or if you are looking to achieve a narrower and straighter tip appearance, revision surgery may be necessary. Hope this...

I’m sorry you had a bad experience. Based on your photos, your scars don’t appear to be “terrible”, and if alar narrowing scars are visible and nodular, you may benefit from dermabrasion - Dr Russel Kridel. The base view of your nose shows tilting of your columella, and that is not seen on fron...
