Which procedures can correct an inverted v deformity?

November 1, 2012
Asked By:luvluv123

it appears that I have an inverted v. I'm confused cause my doc did say he was using a spreader graft in my nose and after reading on real self I saw that the inverted v usually happens when it just weakens and to fix it you would need a graft? How exactly does a inverted v occurr? I am looking into correcting this, but I am planning to go with a new doctor... what procedures are done with correcting an inverted v deformity? Thanks.
