Nose redness - how can this be fixed? (Photo)

FR
Frustrated with RednessDec 15, 2025

My nose frequently gets this redness whether it is hot, cold, or temperate and whether my skin is dry or moisturized. Is this something that could be corrected with rhinoplasty? If so, is there a specialized type of procedure or specialized plastic surgeon i need to look for?

Hello and thank you for your question. Although an exam in person is ideal with an intranasal evaluation, from your story and photographs alone it appears that you have a deviated septum with collapse of your nostril and compromise of your nasal valves. You can likely benefit from a...

Hello and thank you for your question. Although an exam in person is ideal, if you have nasal breathing difficulty and you're essentially a permanent mouth breather, this can be improved with a number of different procedures. If your nasal bones were injured/fractured in the past, this can...
