Why does my tip droop drastically when I turn my head to one side but not the other? (Photo)

Asked By:kaitlyns387 in Levittown, PA

I had a rhinoplasty in October of 2016. I noticed immediately how much my nose droops to the left when I tilt my head, it does not do this when I tilt to the other side. I am terrified! Mostly because my doctor doesn't even notice it or may be pretending not to notice when I voiced my concerns. Any advice???? Please???
