My nose wasn't always uneven, I noticed it around middle school.
Answer: Causes of nostril deviation It does appear that you might have a deviated septum which is the most likely reason that your left nostril is more slit-like and narrower than your right nostril. However, other causes such as asymmetric cartilages that make up the tip of your nose can also be a cause. A good examination would help to make a more exact determination. Good luck in your area.

Answer: Rhinoplasty, some advices: Thank you very much for sharing your concerns with us.The harmony between facial parts makes us instinctively recognize the beauty... without knowing it, without defining it, just a perception that surprises and captivates us.In this regard, I suggest perform a Closed Rhinoplasty (without visible scars) to treat the tip, base and nasal bridge.With this procedure you get a delicate nose, better harmonize with your other facial features.Respectfully,Dr. Emmanuel Mallol Cotes.-

Answer: Septum Yes, it appears a septum deviation in the cadual or bottom part of the septum is causing your nostril asymmetry. Removing the part of the septum that is buckling or straigtening the caudal part with some cartilage grafts would be necessary to correct. Best wishes, Dr. T.

Answer: Uneven Nostrils I see this issue all the time. The fact that nostrils appear asymmetric on basal view is an indication that there could be septal deviation to one side or the other causing the entry point of the nostrils to be different. There's also the possibility that the cartilage of the tip of the nose called the lower lateral cartilage is slightly longer on your left side. Properly executed nasal tip surgery and refinement and realignment of the supple cartilages can lead to a much more balanced and natural appearing nose. I recommend that you seek the advice of a double board-certified facial plastic surgeon. Thank you for your comments and I wish you the best of luck.
