Why does my right side of my nose look better than the left side? (Photos)

There are many reasons for asymmetry after rhinoplasty. You are only a couple of months from rhinoplasty surgery. Not knowing the exact operative details, it generally takes one year for the swelling to completely resolve, perhaps longer in patients with thicker skin. There is new scar tissue in the deeper tissues of the nose that will soften and fade with time, and cartilage grafts (if any) can change with time. You are still early in your recovery, and it would be premature to judge the final outcome. You should keep an open dialogue with your surgeon to help guide you through your recovery.

In any plastic surgery procedure there is risk of asymmetry. This is especially true in rhinoplasty especially if there was asymmetry before surgery. Overall I’d say you have a good result.

Hi, your facial bone structure and structure of your nose will always have minor asymmetries. As a result your nose will not look exactly the same from the 2 sides. While swelling may go down and improve the symmetry a bit it is very likely the right and left sides will look slightly different. This is the same for everyone. Looks like you’ve had a really good result and shouldn’t worry about this
