Uneven nostrils post Rhinoplasty. Any suggestions? (photos)

April 18, 2016
Asked By:bren9780 in Martins Ferry, OH

I am 3 weeks post septorhinoplasty. I did not have this for cosmetic purposes. It was to correct a deviated septum and valvular collapse. There's a bump on the bridge of my nose and ridges above my nostrils. I'm assuming those will both correct. But what I'm really worried about are my nostrils. They're uneven and I do not see how this can correct itself. If this is something that requires additional surgery, am I going to have to pay for that? My first wasn't cosmetic and my ins covered it.
