Do I have a nasal valve collapse?

January 14, 2022
Asked By:Rhinoplastypatient1087 in Jackson Township, New Jersey

I had a rhinoplasty procedure done about 10 months ago. The doctor slightly Brought down my bridge as well as lifted my tip. He also discovered what he said was a deviated septum. (Never knew I had that.) I am noticing a line indentation on the right side of my nose as well as the nostril looking a little more sunk in than the other nostril. I know it is impossible for nostrils to be completely asymmetrical but something looks off. Is this the beginning of a collapse?
