Nostrils are still uneven 6 months after my closed rhinoplasty. Should I see another doctor? Do I need another surgery? (Photos)

Asked By:Genuine850630 in Turkey, TR

It has been officially 6 months since I've had my closed rhinoplasty. My noutrils were uneven since the day my bandages were removed (one noustril higher and other shorter). I shared my concern with my doctor but he keeps saying it's due to the closed rhinoplasty operation and how swelling occurs differently in each noustril. He tells me it will be better around year 1 but I don't see them getting even after 6 months already. Should I see another doctor? Do I need another surgery?
