My nose is crooked after 14 months after my rhinoplasty. My nose was not crooked before the rhinoplasty and I believe it is because a woman hit my nose with a hairbrush 3 months post-op. I am also not happy with the tip because it looks really round and one side is bigger than the other.

Do you think he would do the revision for a reduced cost or even for free?
