Slightly crooked nose that comes and goes - what am I experiencing? (photos)

tmari92Apr 10, 2023
I had rhinoplasty done 7-8 years ago. I had a slight dorsal hump, deviated septum, and a slightly downturned nose. I noticed asymmetry to my nose and brought it up to my surgeon. It went unresolved. I'm not sure what the issue is because sometimes when its cold or i have a runny nose my nose looks perfect but then it swells up again. I also feel hardness on the right side of my nose. What am i experiencing?

Hello! Thank you for your question.From the photo you shared it looks like you have thick skin. The swelling can stay longer on patients with thick skin. I recommend you to wait 6 more months (so to be 1 year post-op) to see the final result. If by then you are still unhappy with your nose, you...
