My face is incredibly asymmetric. Will a rhinoplasty improve my overall facial symmetry? (Photo)

March 12, 2016
Asked By:Jacquelyn14 in Sarasota, FL

I understand my skeletal structure is also somewhat asymmetric.but, I am planning on getting a rhinoplasty sometime in May in order to correct my nose, which i broke a long time ago playing basketball. Do you think this will improve the overall symmetry of my face? Or are there other things that i can possibly do. I only see the discrepancy in pictures. In a mirror i cant tell that anything on my face is crooked. Id just like some professional opinions.
