Retracted columella after car accident - how to fix it? (photos)

Asked By:TheRealChy in New York, New York

Hello, I need help with my columella, I was in a car accident and lost some tip support. From my understanding and research I now have a retracted columella. The bones were fractured leaving me with a deviated septum that has yet to be fixed. The tip of my nose was poorly stitched back on to my columella. It’s lopsided due to a small chunk missing and not being completely stitched sealed.
