Will a crooked nose cause a deviated septum to reoccur? (Photos)

Asked By:lauren73 in Houston, TX

I recently saw an ENT, who confirmed I had a substantial deviated septum which has caused dry throat, nose bleeds, etc.. As you can see by my pictures, I have a lot going on with my nose. My question is this: if I have the septoplasty, but nothing else done to my nose, can the septum become deviated again because my nose is crooked? It seems the older I get, the more my nose twists. If this is the case, I will consider plastic surgery to correct the twisted nose or whatever necessary.
