What Should We Do? My 11 Year Old Daughter Has a Small Deformity of Her Left Nostril (photo)

April 2, 2012
Asked By:lilnan

My 11 year old daughter has a small deformity of her left nostril. It is pushed up and not as "full" as the right side. My husband is almost insisting on corrective surgery. He says it could eventually affect her self esteem. She has been asking more and more questions on why her nose is that way, and other children in her class have begun making comments (not mean) and also asking questions about it. Do you have any advise?
