I am 9 months post op, and I've noticed that the left side of my nose is uneven. My surgeon lowered the bridge of my nose, but it looks crooked. Is this still swelling or should I ask them to correct the left nasal bone to be even with the right side?

I can see your nose looks a bit wider after surgery, but this may be more noticeable to you than to others. The best way to determine your candidacy for revision is to visit several reputable rhinoplasty specialists. Hope this helps! Dr Joseph
If I'm understanding your photos correctly, you appear to have an improved nasal appearance after surgery. Your tip does not appear too high. Best to consult with a reputable rhinoplasty specialist about your concerns, since you appear to have an improved result. Hope this helps you. Dr Joseph
Much more information is needed, such as a copy of the operative report, and a full set of facial photographs from all angles, since the nose is a three dimensional structure. It's also important to know how much cartilage is left over on the inside of the nose for potential grafting purposes....
