Problem with my nose: bone on left side of my nose sticks out more and the right side it flatter.

Question

This problem is that noticeable but you can feel it. It also sometimes give me light headaches. Is this a problem?

Hello and thank you for your question.  The
best advice you can receive is from an in-person consultation.  In some patients with bone/cartilage nasal asymmetry, osteotomies and/or spreader grafts can improve this.   Make sure you
specifically look at before and after pictures of real patients who have
had this surgery performed by your surgeon and evaluate their
results.   The most important aspect is to find a surgeon you are
comfortable with. I recommend that you seek consultation with a qualified
board-certified plastic surgeon who can evaluate you in person.
Best wishes and good luck.

It is very common to see an asymmetrical dorsal hump when performing a rhinoplasty procedure. A Closed rhinoplasty approach can accomplish  shaving down the dorsal hump, and straightening the nasal bridge line with all of the incisions placed on the inside of the nose. For more information and many before-and-after  dorsal hump  removal rhinoplasty examples, please see the link and the video below
