Asked By:princessnikkilee in San Diego, CA

I had septorhinoplasty yesterday. My nose was broken to straighten it however the cast is crooked just as my nose was, and my nostrils are uneven. Is this normal?Does this mean my nose will still be crooked and my nostrils will be this uneven. They were slightly uneven prior.
