Crooked, droopy & uneven - am I a good candidate for rhinoplasty?

I would recommend starting with a consultation with a board-certified facial plastic surgeon that specializes in rhinoplasty surgery to discuss if rhinoplasty can address your concerns.
I would recommend writing down the following questions before scheduling your consultation:
1. Are you unhappy with the tip of your nose?
2. Do you feel that your nose is too wide?
3. Do you want to make your nostrils smaller in appearance?
4. Are you looking to decrease the general size of your nose?
I hope some of these questions will help you pinpoint what it is that you don't like about your nose. Cost will vary due to various factors like anesthesia fees, facilities fees, etc. I wish you the best as you research your options when scheduling a rhinoplasty consultation.
Sincerely,
Philip J. Miller, MD, FACS Double Board-Certified Facial Plastic Surgeon

Hi!
Your statement of wanting a nose that "fits your face better and is more symmetrical but doesn't drastically alter your appearance" is, in my opinion, evidence that you might be a good candidate for the nose correction surgery you have been contemplating. It is challenging when a patient wishes to obtain someone else's nose, or wants such a drastic change that it would alter their entire appearance. This situation often leads to disappointment for both patient and surgeon, as both the changes themselves and the associated expectations are often not realistic. When a patient prefers a more "natural" outcome and wishes to preserve their identity rather than change it, I find that they are frequently in the right mindset to take on this important decision.
The fact that you have breathing issues is also important, because you would want to make sure that both issues (aesthetic and breathing) are addressed by the surgical plan you come up with with your rhinoplasty surgeon. I think too often these issues are separated into distinct problems when in fact they are actually the same thing - you only have one nose after all. In this regard, I think of these cases as "complex", as the functional issues and aesthetic issues need to be addressed simultaneously. One thing the photos you showed can't demonstrate is the degree of septal deviation or other internal nasal issues that may be present. These will only show up on a detailed physical examination with your consulting doctor, but will certainly affect the surgical plan. You will definitely want to consult a board-certified surgeon and make sure they are as attuned to your breathing issues as your aesthetic issues.

Hello there,
You seem to have a deviated nasal septum whicj is giving you breathing issues. On a cosmetic point of view you have long nose for your face. Large, offshape and mildly drooping tip.
You are a candidate for septorhinoplasty where both issues can be dealt together. Make sure you consult a board certified plastic surgeon for detailed examination and appropriate surgical plan for you. Hope this helps. Thanks for your query here.
