Question

My nose is leaned to the right

William Portuese, MD · Answer

It is very difficult to tell from a 1 limited photograph what is causing the issues.  A thorough internal and external examination of the nose is required to make a determination about it very difficult surgical procedure such as a septoplasty and rhinoplasty.

Eric M. Joseph, MD · Answer

The bottom of your nasal septum may be displaced into your left nasal airway which could result in a tilted appearance to the right, and left nasal blockage. Consider visiting a reputable rhinoplasty specialist so you could see what might be best for you moving forward. Thank you. Dr Joseph

Fred J. Bressler, MD, FACS · Answer

Your base view suggest that your nasal septum is deviated and sticking abnormally in to the left nostril. This can cause imbalance of other structures and cause your nose to tilt. Correction is done via septoplasty, possible rhinoplasty. I would consult in person with a Facial Plastic Surgeon and ask for best recommendations. Best Wishes.
