I broke my nose. Do I need a rhinoplasty? (Photos)

N
Nicholasrio213Jul 5, 2022

About 7 months ago I sustained an injury to my nose leaving it broken. At the time of the injury, it was swollen and I had two black eyes. When I went to an ENT about a week later, he told me it was a non-displaced fracture, and that "I didn't need to have anything done". But as time passed and the swelling went down I noticed that my nose looked crooked. The left side feels dented and the right side is protruding. Is rhinoplasty the only way to correct my nose now? Will insurance

Dear Capricorno, Thanks for your question. You may get your nose slimmer and your bulbous tip more defined than it is now with Closed Atraumatic Rhinoplasty without cutting the tip of your nose. Since you have a thicker skin it will be reduced as much as your tissues will allow that to do....

A chin implant is going to help tremendously, so this is where I would start. A rhinoplasty to reduce the slight hump and refine the tip would be your next move.
